Snow Performance or AEM

Hi

I have been considering meth/water injection kit for my W463 G63.
Kind of hard to choose between AEM and Snow Performance.
What do you gentlemen recommend?
Comparing these two brand?
Thanks

Doesn't this make the truck street illegal, or is that your objective?

Just to decrease the air temperature down to a cold weather level.
I am located in Dubai, it is averagely 45 degree centigrade during the summer.
Hopefully to decrease the IAT down to 20ish degree centigrade.

I have had a snow kit on my E55 since 2014. Have only needed to replace the pump just recently and the new pump is much better unit. My only recommendation is to ensure a check valve is installed. I do want to install a kit on our G and GL but while all those are tuned we just haven’t desired to go further down the mods in those.

I use my windshield washer tank for meth as I don’t use the washer and it’s nice to get a message on the dash letting me know it’s low.

Built 2008 G55 & one big 80 Series LandCruiser !
I ran Snow's kits on my RS6's - worked great with no issues and really helped on temps....especially when I moved to TX somewhat like where you are..... E85 likley isn't an option but I run the EC e40 tune and on it it drops IAT temps down 10-12 degrees...
