I recently purchased a CoolingMist Deluxe Single Stage Performance Package.

I opted to go with a 150PSI Sur-Flow pump and 3GPH nozzle. Should atomized the water nicely.

My question is I will be running water only, mainly to supress detonation/pinging as a safety device. I have a program that adjusts itself on timing via Air Temp, so my tune wouldnt need re-tuning if water is used. However I have thought about using a 15% meth mix so my crappy 91 octane ( I wish i was living in Hungary still 101 octane) to about 95 octane or so....just a small hint of extra fuel.

My question is what do you think about my setup? and if that 15/85 mix is a good idea or just stay 100% water? Have you guys had any trouble with injecting water or any mixtures, like adverse effects

I have received nothing but great service from David Hill, and his parts are top notch....but i would like to know what you guys think.

also would it be bad to spray before the supercharger or after the supercharger

If you are running less 10% of water to fuel, it doesn't normally needs a retune.

would a 10% mix of methanol (HEET) would make any difference as far as fuel. all i got here is 91 octane and im trying to get about 93-95 octane yield

I believe, you need to add 5% methanol to fuel to gain, hereis some info.
