• Ha! Never considered nitrous, I will investigate further. Wet system would be pretty complicated and require standalone management I think?

  • Lots of overweight racists from the Midlands I know if run methanol/water injection on our engine, which is very cheap bang for buck as long as you've got suitable pipework and intercooler, which you/i do. The thing that put me off was that you needed to have a tank of terrifying flame water somewhere in the car. I've seen donut tanks in the spare wheel bay, which is what tim has, but it's still very close to any children in the back. Did also think of putting one in the bulkhead, which is a long way from anyone, plus not inside cab, but then the volume is so low it would be a total pain. You could run without meth, but then map would be fucked, so would need switch to kill pump, which would burn out if empty, and spare ecu to switch between.

    @Dammit keeps saying about Methanol injection, I have no qualms about this system, plenty of people used them in R53 and R56 Mini tuning, however, and my concern here relies on no real concrete knowledge so happy to be told otherwise, water/meth injection doesn't increase power alone, it allows you to turn the boost up and not have to worry about increased IATs and detonation, but if my turbo is already running fairly large boost and coping OK, then turning the boost up, regardless of if I can do it safely, isn't going to make it more driveable, it's just going to make it have a bigger peak number.
