Methanol Tune ???? --Help Plz

I need some advise, I am about to increase my boost 2-3lbs with a smaller pulley for a total of 12-13lbs and I want to start using Methanol. Right now the car has an Ed Wright Dyno tune on it. I feel comfortable that they can reflash my computer for the extra boost without dynoing the car again because they still have my last dyno tune info, but would it be wise to have them tune it for Methanol as well,( like adding some timing, take out a little fuel) or I am asking for trouble without actually dynoing it again for the Methanol?

Any guessing on a tune without street or dyno readings is asking for trouble with forced induction.

the meth might make up the fuel for the increase in boost and you may not need another tune, though any changes of that nature need to be done w/a wideband hooked up at least, a loaded dyno would be ideal...
