Some miser on juice...

mines the 16 valve soon to be turbo few bits to get and ill be sorted goin to anadoize most of my bits aswel cas everything is alloy

not bad for a bit of straight pipe! if she boosts, its grand!

8feet bang on hoping to hve it running in the next week or 2

Whats the water/meth thingy?

i used to own one of these it brings back some memorys alright, wrote it off tho lol

Water/Meth injection basically fogs a mixture (usually 50% distilled water and 50% Methanol) into the intake using a special nozzle, pump and a way to activate it.

It works best on turbo cars, be it petrol or diesel. but is also useful on n/a's for prolonging the life of the engine, reducing egt's, giving better mpg and reducing knock.

It has been tested and it assists the burn so well that when using normal fuel (in a petrol engine) you can use a map made for running on 110 octane race fuel.

The combination of methanol and the hydrogen from the water being turned to gas in the chamber means a larger bang.


We are currently putting together a kit for both n/a and turbo cars.

Some amount of work going on here keep it up man

ye wexicans are some mad fcukers

looks the tits bud love it

sound lads got abit done tnite mani fully finished along with turbo nw (thanks t kenny for it ) goin be started tmoro without boost pipes as i need t find a 3inch pipe arund close..will have an update tmoro

Nice effort lad, keep up the good work

small update but a big leap forward have a little vid of sum spooooooooling was find missing on cylinder 1 cas one of the leads wasnt on tight here it goes anyone



on the look out for another ct9 or jst rebuild the one i have now as the seals are gone and ders play in the shaft

will be goin for the first spin tmoro

need help on waste gate aswel..which port is for low boost???

you made the video private bud.. cant see it

also i dont understand what you mean about ports on the wastegate? the wastegate opens when it sees a set pressure, if your talking about the low/high boost on a glanza/gt thats controlled with a solenoid and switch, increasing pressure to the wastegate on low boost setting and opening up to allow actual pressure for high boost

ill sort it now i explained it all shit haha i meant ye know the way you have 2 vaccum ports on the wastegate wat i ment to say which is for high and which is for low boost

video fixed der aswel

also had me new laptop out re programming me fisherprice ecu hahaha

Just fixed the link and embedded the vid for you

just watched it there, it is missing bad lol put up another vid in daylight when youve sorted the miss, sounds like its spooling up nicely and you definately need a new turbo, its starting to sound like a supercharger lol

What did you do to get the turbo working? What setup?

Made up a manifold for side mount turbo..oil line is running from t peice from oil pressure switch thn back into sump running water meth injection along wit a 5th injector so I dnt run lean on boost


Went for de for my first spin tday and boosted at .2 bar..trying t source a turbo nw

what nozzle are you using for the meth? also what ratio water/meth and how are you activating it?

Using a injector off a bike and a 3 bar pump..at de moment it's on a button having been using it yet doh need t find a nozzle first going to be running 50/50 on pressure switch to cum on on boost hoping t get a good turbo new turbo Tuesday
