Product Description
Shop with Blessed Performance for the Snow Performance Stage 2 Boost Cooler Water-Meth Injection Kit for your 1999-2018 Ford 7.3L/6.0L/6.4L/6.7L Powerstroke diesel. Get more power and mileage out of your Powerstroke while reducing EGTs with the Snow Performance SNO-420 Stage 2 Boost Cooler Water-Meth Injection Kit. Water methanol injection will increase mileage by cooling the intake charge and lower air temps over 200°F to give your engine more complete combustion. This water meth kit features the VC-50 controller (52mm gauge) that functions as a boost gauge while monitoring such functions as the prime button, percentage of injection, secondary nozzle activation, and fault codes (Pump Failure/Solenoid Failure/Clogged Line/Broken Line).
The Snow Performance Stage 2 Boost Cooler Water-Meth Injection Kit’s VC-50 controller regulates the boost-regulated water meth nozzles and allows you to customize the OLED screen with 7 colors to choose from. The VC-50 controller controls the injection via boost and allows a precise amount of water-meth to be delivered across the RPM range. Starting and full injection phases can be controlled to meet the needs of your engine. Also included in this kit a all the mounting hardware, anodized aluminum straps, 300 PSI Ultra High Output pump, 7-gallon reservoir, fitting and either quick connect nylon tubing or braided stainless-steel line.

- 65HP+ Gains
- Made In the USA
- 7 Gallon Reservoir Tank
- Lowers EGTs 100-300 Degrees
- VC-50 Controller LED Alert System
- Less Regens Due To Reduced Emissions
- 1/4" High Temp Nylon Tubing or -4AN Stainless-Steel Braided Line
COMMON Q & A
What are the benefits of Water-Methanol injection?
Great HP per dollar value.
Decreases of 250 ° F are common using a 50/50% Water-Methanol mix.
More Horsepower while lowering EGTs makes this a great addition for hauling the heaviest loads.
Is this technology new with Turbo Diesels?
No. Water-methanol injection has been used extensively for years in as a common means of cooling the intake charge and reducing exhaust gas temps in high performance truck/tractor pullers. Also, truckers have used water injection for years to increase fuel mileage and lower EGTs.
Why methanol?
Methanol’s high latent heat of vaporization makes it an excellent air charge cooler which means a denser mixture and more horsepower. It is extremely toxic and should be handled with rubber gloves in well ventilated areas only. Care should be taken to avoid skin contact.
Where can I purchase Methanol?
Methanol can generally be purchased where racing fuels are sold. Also, most gas line dryers like "Heat" are simply Methanol. Suppliers of industrial chemicals can also supply Methanol usually at a higher price than fuel suppliers. If all else fails, most windshield washer fluids are up to 40% Methanol and 58% water.
Can I use windshield washer fluid?
Although most contain some glycol and detergent, most windshield washer fluids are up to 50% alcohol (methanol, ethanol, isopropanol) and make an excellent Boost Cooler. Try to find one that indicates "contains methanol".
What ratio of Water-Methanol is recommended?
A 50/50 ratio is recommended. Diesel applications where water conditions the combustion of the methanol so combustion timing isn't affected
Will water-methanol harm my engine?
In theory, at recommended quantities, most of the mixture is evaporated before it hits the combustion chamber. Also, injection only takes place at high boost levels minimizing cylinder wash concerns. Engines that have been torn down after two years of water/methanol usage have shown no wear issues only clean combustion chambers.
Why is Water-Methanol injection so effective on Diesels?
Unlike gasoline engines, the power in a turbo diesel is largely a function of fuel. The problem with continually adding fuel is that you reach a point where the exhaust gas temperatures become prohibitive (over 1500 degrees F). A 50/50% Methanol/Water mix will decrease EGT's approximately 250°F while increasing power 70-100HP.
