Title: Water meth injection
Post by: DomBacon on June 21, 2015, 01:33:54 pm
Got to replace my injectors so at the same time I'm going to clean out all my carbon build up!
Does water meth injection keep the valves clean enough to stop carbon build up happening again?
What's a good kit to buy?
Whats fitting the kit like?

Cheers Dom.

The WMI does help keep them cleaner than without but I believe they still get relatively coked up. Good brands to buy are AEM and DevilsOwn

It depends on the setup entirely, extras such as the meth tank in the boot, level sensor and LED, controller etc. All take extra time. A very basic setup like I did (washer bottle, basic boost switch with no wiring to the cabin) it can be done in a few hours, most of which is spent fitting the Throttle Body spacer (get the one from AKS if you go this route).
