Water/Methanol injection kit purchased

Well, I had an opportunity to purchase the Snow Performance Stage 2 meth injection set up. It was out of the box, but never used. And I got a great deal on it. Being that my Autocross class allows for such a set-up... I decided, why not.

So... question. I plan on installing it this weekend. It is safe to say that I need a tune prior to using it, correct?

it always injects. its like running higher octane gas so you can run higher boost without knock.

The Methanol injection kit I have reads boost pressure via vacuum tube plugged into the module. There are two dials, one for when to start the injection, and another when to be at full injection. Both dials are in pounds of boost. So I can start it at 8psi with a max stray at 13 psi.

I am hoping to install it either this Saturday, or more likely, the following weekend.
