Hi
Please share pics of your installs and what bottle you used and where you located it

Don't think anyone on here has 1 set up matey. Have you done much looking into this? Got any pics on installs yourself. I'd never thought of this. I run a revo stage 2. Seems like a good mod

Best place to have a look at this is on Seatcupra.net
Loads of guys have it on there.

Very few polos have it here, but those that do are mostly diesel, will try sourcing some info

I recently purchased an old aquamist kit that was rebranded locally

looks like this

With water meth, there is multiple gains.

You get cooler intake temps with the water
You get higher octane cos of the meth

The kit I have has a power button so I can switch it on and off as I please

I will be running revo stage 2 soon so I will set performace 1 with no meth, performance 2 with meth and performance 3 with aggressive settings and high octane

I found my intake temps to be in the high 70s(celcius) pre fmic, post fmic its now in the high 30s, with wmi it will be under 20s

The fmic i bought was used, it had a bung for the wmi already but i sealed it up when i fitted it, i will make a new boost pipe for map sensor and wmi, the pipe is the one you see on the left of the pic

Here's a better pic

The pipe on the left isnt too pretty for my liking so I plan on changing that

Sorry I don't understand this. Is it a forum of fuel additive. Or is this what people meen by water cooled ? Dum question ?

dood9n3 · Post by **dood9n3** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 12:23 am

Water meth is usually sprayed into the boost pipe before the throttle body in a fine mist formation. The mist enters the intake manifold and cools the intake temps and the meth aids to increase octane of fuel

Get better worded explanation here http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_in ... _(engines)

Water cooled means the engine is cooled via use of a radiator where as air cooled cars do not have radiators like the old beetles and combis
