50/50 meth vs 100% Meth

I've seen a bunch of threads that discuss the benefits of Meth Injection. I am well aware of the cooling benefits of IATs/Steam cleaning effect for the engine as well as reducing knock... etc... However, my question is, what kind of benefits will I see if I decide to try 100% meth vs, 50/50 meth (which is what I am using now).

I saw this video on youtube, and it shows roughly a 40WTQ and about 50WHP on 50/50 vs 100% meth.



Will I see something similar if I try 100% meth?

The additional fuel and octane content makes a big difference. Easily 50whp when you are boosting 25-26psi.

Could still make 30-40 depending on other mods and how you are tuned.

If something leaks..
Something I read today is that I saw an upgraded injection pump with larger hoses. I wonder if this could be beneficial to the standard pumps.
I looked at the rating on the pumps Burger Motor Sport sells and they are about 250PSi I believe and Snow Performance has 300PSI and a pump rated for 700HP builds.
I emailed them asking some spec information

I am getting a meth kit for first time, aem overs 2 kits 33-3300 that will need to tap the charge pipe as it has a molded-in nipple for boost hose and the 33-3350 does not need to be analog, could I run the the 3350 kit so I don't have to drill my charge pipe?
