Might want to park it, run a compression test and *know* if you have a bent valve. Burn one of those up and you'll be Shoooooooting yourself in the foot. :) p.s. Aquamist is my next upgrade. I've got a lot of the stuff together now (pump, nozzles) Just need the hose and some time to wire some solenoids into the DAQ. OH yeah, need to write the code too. :) Question for you, if you dont mind... How do you know how much 'aqua' to inject?
: finished amist.
: - got my diagnostic lights working (LEDs have a very distinct pos/neg or whatever...i forgot that part).
: - tuned the jet sizes (.8 + .9 in each pipe). - ran 4-5 hard 4th gear runs with out water...steady 1.0 bar on the avc-r.
: - water comes on at about .67 bar (what is that 8-9 psi?)...gonna have to turn that up a notch.
: - turned water on (didn't touch the AVC-R)...HOLY CHRIST...1.19 bar first run (thats an additional 3 PSI). Pretty damned smooth (very noticable difference). And the engine absolutely SINGS under boost. Sings I tell ya...
: - Got the AVC-R to stabalized at 1.2 bar but blew the drivers side turbo to intercooler intake hose. Not just popped off, but POPPED the eff off. It's all bent and funny looking. I should take a picture of it...It's just so odd that it'd go the way it did.
: Just thought I'd share.
: Oh, since I think I bent a valve last week, i'm gonna back boost off to 12. I really didn't expect it to do what it did.
