To be fitted c20let yellow inj, forge actuator, mod throttle intake to fit meth inj nozzle. Never been on rollers. Compared to last mk4 agu with r-tech map that was 197bhp this leaves it for dead. Raced mate in his focus st couple weeks ago couldn't catch me to 125mph. Really impressed with APR map be honest really peaky. Poss going for power run sat at carbon if can fit me in.

Post by: Chris. on 22 January 2012, 12:13: Actuator pretty easy to do, apart from the last bolt behind oil line banjo. Theres a setup video I made on youtube.

Shaft, is that still on a k03 turbo or a k03s?

Cheeers just watched it on youtube, setting up seems simple enough!

Can you change the actuator with the turbo still on the car?

Post by: Chris. on 22 January 2012, 17:30: Is there any failsafes for if your watermeth runs out?

IE, it drops the ECU into a low timing mode or, do you just have to keep a close eye on it.

How long roughly, does a 1gallon tank last?

Post by: shaft69 on 22 January 2012, 18:24: Most of time i have it turned off have switch on/off switch so turn it on when car upto operating temp. Tank about 4lt used it alot this weekend filled it thursday dropped about 1/2" so doesnt use that much. Supprised how little it does use. Havent given it good battering yet will come soon. Meth cheap too 25lt barrel for £18,tank has low level warning wired it in so bring on led when 1lt left.
