water/meth vs. injectors? I'm Looking for less smoke.

It has recently ocurred to me that a water/meth setup may be a better option for me than bigger injectors. It seems to me that with my current set-up, bigger injectors will net me more HP, but will also hamper me with higher EGT's and lots of smoke. With a water/meth setup, I should be able to gain roughly 70hp, decreased smoke, and ~200* drop in EGT.

So wouldn't you think that some RV275's with water/meth would be a good combo to add to my Edge Hot Juice and modded WH1C turbo?

It seems that I can make more useable power with less stress to the motor... plus, like the edge, I can turn the water/meth on and off at will. Can't do that with big injectors.

Thoughts/comments?
