OP is the only one who gets to be funny? Lighten up. It's what happens when you ask those kinds of questions anyway.

There's minimal benefit (if any) in slapping on a water/meth injection kit on a n/a car, especially a Yaris (which the OP doesn't have anyay). It's $300 that could be much better spent elsewhere. It might possibly be useful if you had super high compression, but that brings up a whole bunch of other questions. Are you going to spend the money to build a high compression 1NZ motor? Who is going to make custom parts for you? Where are you going to get methanol from? Do you really think buying methanol all the time and filling up your little tank is easier than just using higher octane fuel? What are you going to tune it with? Are you going to spend $1500 on an AEM ecu and wire the whole thing up yourself? Are you going to have separate fuel map for the meth injection? How do you know the methanol mix is always going to be consistent and not throw off your tune? Are you going to dyno before and after and prove it's even worthwhile? I'm sure I could think of more, but you get the idea (I hope).
