Water, meth or a mix?

Well i plan on setting up my aquamist kit in a week or so, and i was wondering what your suggestions were as to what i should run. Straight meth, straight water, or 50/50

From my understand, water octane rating is infinite and methanol octane is some where about 120. So wouldn't 50/50 solution better or equally better than 100% meth?

I'm also a noob on this subject too. I'm just trying to learn.

Meth will increase your octane rating of the total fuel being put into the engine. Water may have an "unlimted" octane rating, but since water does not burn, it does not increase your fuel octane. Water is just being used to absorb the heat being generated. Personally I would rather put more fuel and air in my car than I would water and air. Just my $0.02
