Anyone try methenol injection?

A buddy of mine built a custom twin turbo Lexus LS400. He put together a custom methenol injection kit that comes in at a certain boost into the intake pipe. It's like a NOS setup, but is legal and is on at all times. Has anyone tried this? Is it safe to run in a rotary? What do you guess think?

Water injection is better. Water in the combustion chamber helps prevent detonation, methanol just makes the air/fuel mixture richer.

methanol has Very adverse affects on any engine.. my advice is to not run it at all if you plan on having any engine last over a week or two..
