If your fuel nozzle is before the turbo yes it will be rich, but if the fuel nozzle sees boost the regulator will keep the pressure constant.

If you already run a methanol pump, using meth to fuel a wet shot is a no-brainer. You add octane rating, cool the intake charge, and leave your primary fuel system alone in one fell swoop. As others have pointed out, the nitrous is far more useful as an aid in spooling off the line than for running a full pass if properly optimized with the turbo sizing.

It certainly cools it. At the end of 1/8th at 14psi of boost with the stock intercooler and heat exchanger the IATs were 44 degrees less than the staging.

I agree for turbos it's best used off the line as a anti lag measure, but in my case my little blower is maxed out and needed some help.
