Low power or high expectations ?!?

Do you have a good wideband in it? If so, what does it show for AFR on WOT? I think if it were mine, I would have to start with 3 steps like basically everyone said, wideband, pull the watermeth at first, and bump 1* timing in. Make a pull, yank the plugs and check them. Read for color and marks, rinse, repeat. Once you see it showing on the plug, add back in the yellow **** meth on a small nozzle, and see where your at.

Is that 1 plug or a few? What was the condition when it was being ran last? Was it a WOT pull and then shut down? To get what your looking for, a WOT pull, and then shut down as quick as possible is best. The color will change on plugs pretty quick.
Where was the wideband reading on that? And was that on a dyno or street pull? Defiantly looks like it could be leaned out. I would start there, get the color right, and then start rolling in timing.

Water/meth nozzles should be before the blower.
If you mix water and methanol be sure the mix is always consistent and at least 30% water for stability. If just alcohol you'll need 100% methanol compatible parts, especially the pump.
Agreed with not enough timing, especially running that rich, fairly low boost, and that low of compression.
Can you put on a smaller pulley without throwing belts or hurting the motor? Fuel system seems more than capable of more boost.
