No issues with the dye as of yet. I'll try to type the short story version. Late last yr during a dyno tuning session, to much detonation cause minor damage to my mitsu 4 layer head gasket. The symptom of this was only loosing coolant out of the overflow bottle ONLY under higher boost 15psi or more. Normal daily driving was fine no loss of coolant. I installed ARP head studs to try to seal the HG better but the damage was already done. Fast forward to May '05 I bought and installed the Coolingmist kit.
I have run the kit since June and last week took the car to JNZ Tuning for a HG replacement. After the head was removed, the valves, bowls were in like new condition. There was no sign of contamination from the "blue smurf piss" in my motor. My piston tops had some carbon build up on them from running too rich but it cleaned off very easily from the steam cleaning action of the Water injection. It was really hard to believe that my stock bottom end had 130K on it, at least by looking at the pistons and cylinder walls.
After the car was all back together. I ran it at the Englishtown Mitsu day last Sat. I only ran the car once down the track to get a new baseline tune. Everything logged perfectly at 18-19psi, actually it was still on the rich side. On the way home I turned up the boost to about 21psi and the car felt much better, still logging rich. This brings me to today, and my post above. At 24psi it feels like I have a new car again, compared to the 18psi I was running two weeks ago.
Bottom line I give two thumbs up for H20/Alcohol or Methanol injection!!! Plus it's far cheaper than race gas..
