how many of you are making good power without water or meth injection?

I am OK to at least 280 crank HP on 6 psi boost w/o intercooler or water/meth inj.

My car ran fine without the meth and water at 10psi. I'm still currently at 10psi with meth injection because I want to crank the boost up soon. I haven't done so yet since I've moved farther for college and would like to keep everything not broke for a bit longer :) I'm intercooled also

how much higher do you plan on going that you would need the meth?

I would like 20psi would be a nasty daily driver! The meth injection just is a little extra safety net for the motor or my tune.

I have no intercooler as yet. The Meth/H2O should cover that, at least at these boost levels.
