I'm keen to learn more about the whole water/methanol injection setups available for the XR6T. Does anyone in south australia offer this? Can it be used with the capa tuner? I don't want to change the ecu, but im not sure if you even have to. Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good for injecting into engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again that has been said before, David (blueboost) is the man to talk to about these setups and he uses these kits-http://www.snowperformance.net/Who else can say they've run tens in the north with an XR6T?

They are great for North Queensland where the temps are hot and fuel is sh*t. They also allow you to stretch a few things a bit further safely. I run one and recommend it highly. There was a big thread on this a little while back with quite a bit of info if you do a search....Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Brad EDIT: also I rang kpm and they advised me it is not necessary or recomended for street use primarily drag racing. They didnt actually say they don't do it so I don't know if they do but they didn't seem too keen Edited 09/09/07 01:33 PM by Brad_XR6T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
