Water methanol injection is the way forward for 1.8t tuning

[Purely VAG]

Interesting stuff Nick, Not had experience with this yet

[Rousie]

My DevilsOwn kit will be up for sale in the next half hour by the way! :-)

RTechUK any more results?? and do you know the answers to my question pls?? Cheers

[Carl18T]

Did anyone get any good results with the water injection? My car had it but it's been taken off when it was sold. Maybe have it fitted again???

[golfyste]

Basically simple answer is WMI is the one if if not THE best mod!

If you follow Nikis work and do some research WMI unleashes more power yet makes the engine run safer temps and put less strain on parts.

It next on my list and I can't wait to get it installed!

Been looking at this
Im not sure on running it from the washer bottle rather have a seprate bottle for it. As i use the washers alot. I have noticed that there is 2 stages for the devilsown kit. Whats the difference and who sells the cheapest kit?

[golfyste]

Yeah I'm gonna have a separate tank in the back.
There is the base kit which uses a adjustable 6-30 psi boost switch so you can adjust when it starts to inject meth.
And the expensive kits use a progressive controller with your map sensor to adjust how much meth is injected as your boost increases etc

BUT although the controllers are good, apparently with all the companies the controllers are known to either fail or just be a general nightmare. So for simplicity and reliability your better with just getting a devils own base kit

excuse the noob question, but what is it exactly? 

[golfyste]

You inject a mixture of deionised water and methanol I to your intake just after your intercooler.
The water cools your intake temps (a lot) and the methanol increases the octane of your fuel (pretty much) so you have a bugger bang with cooler cylinder abd exhaust temps which allows you to map in more timing etc and create more Power without it running too hot or creating knock.

I'm going to call R-tec see what they say they can do for mine. I'm running 227 break at the min with APR maps but the car was running 250 till the last owner took it all off. Want to find out the costs of getting it to 300. Then the air ride in spring will finish it off nicely,
