Which Meth Kit ?

I've been thinking about installing a meth kit. Which would you guys prefer thats not on the expensive side of things and I dont want to tune for it just to use to cool. Who would you recommend for the install?. My car is a 2013 E63 just HD Tune. With the kit if not tunning do i just run water only? sorry for the questions just trying to get clarity.

So far pre meth turbo injection has been working effectively for the past 2 years for me. Not tuned just for cooling. Data log shows drop in intake temps even while climbing high in the rpm band, at the same time it’s keeping the turbos more efficient without over working to achieve the same boost over and over again . And only with a 5gpm nozzle using 75% meth 25% distilled water. And I’m running an aggressive tune so keeping things cool for me is a must. Please please opt for stainless braided lines , any and all nylon push to connect fitting will egg shape from the heat and leak.

pure water won’t flash and atomize quick enough for pre turbo. I can’t really say if it will work for our motors injecting at the manifold with just water. Never tried.

i mix my own. I use vp m1 pure methanol

Not sure now how to go about it, the VRP kit is kinda up there 1500 starting but i only wanna use water and definitely no tune. If it becomes a headache ill just use boostane do cat delete and rear 02's delete and call it a day. I used boostane and love the results was hoping water injection wouldn't be so complicated
