    Water injection

    HAHA, i dont think anybody has since aircons use about 5BHP to run, to u had better be making at more than 5 using it! I guess you could, and it would easily supply enough air (on full blast). If not, you can just put small holes along the ducting so it wont suck in the majority of the warmer...

    Water injection

    My N20 kit is a 2 bolt on/off affair so i can take it off after a crash..eer! with a 8mm spanner.....and they cant rell, chuck it in a bush till you collect it later. Water will cool the air, but as you know, energy cant disappear, so the water will then be warm, although the created average...

    Brakes - avoiding brake fade

    Mikeot 5 absorbes atmospheric moisture faster and becomes more dangerous as it loweres the boiling point. Dot 4 is fine, try the castrol synthetic stuff as it doesnt absorb moisture as fast. The people in the back of the megane were almost standing!!!!! a total of almost 800 lbs of...

    Double Spoiler Woes...

    is the S1600 spoiler actually for sale, i would be surprised if it was as the kit aint. And i dont suppose it will be. Only people whio make their rallycar kits are citroen saxo S1600 and focus rally car.

    well, you cange the just by unscrewing a 13mm cap to get to the jet in the solenoid. And the pipes are held in by 8mm bolts, squeezing on an olive.

    Brakes - avoiding brake fade

    the only time i have experienced brake fade was when i was in a megane convertable with 3 other blokes in all about 200lbs. Steaming along a downhill road for about 3 miles with lots of tight corners after long straights. The brakes got too hot, baked themselves, and wheni got to the roundabout...

    Water injection

    water injection wont do a thing for your NA car, since your not experiencing detonation. I use my 172 in HK where temps are around 32 deg all day long. And i dont feel any difference. The engine may run very hot, but where it sucks air in and the rate at which it does so. It rarely has enough...

    Spark pluggs

    i just meant that what i get from halfords, the NGK plugs run better than the bosch and champion ones. I know you can order harder plugs specially for the job, but with a small shoot like mine, i dont really need it. I will though when i get the head done.

    I use a fogger on a home made brace, so its not threaded in. The solenoids thread? what do you mean by this? the side of the connector where the pipe comes out?. I use a 13mm spanner....but dunno to tell you the truth.

    Supercharger !

    AN INTERCOOLER WILL GIVE you more power overall. But it will give the charger a similar form of lag as the air being forced in has to travel further through the pipes and intercooler. up to you really.....but if you do, make the piping as short as possible.

    worn dampers

    they had already done 90,000 so when i did change them, they were useless, like water inside.

    i personally couldnt be bothered to set up a progresive controller. The nylon pipe was just given to me, so i dont know how much it is. But ask wizzards and i sure they will have some....and dont let them balls you into braided. Torque would be hard to calculate as the N20 injection is by...

    Spark pluggs

    a16V doesnt use a traditional coil but you can get uprated versions for about 120 quid. I use NGK with my nitro as they can run hotter.

    i use gas in first cause its a 4 speed so a bit tall. And the front just squirms all over, its great, and the noise is like something trying to excape the engine. And then the lovely smell of burnt N20!!!! its like sweet strawberries! a 2 stage system would be easiest, then you could have a...

    well, i know, its just a simple solution thats all. The wizzard solenoids do work well, i have had no probs, but their construction is just cheap and tacky lookin. i use a simple fogger ( N20 out the vertical plane and fuel out the horisontal plane) above the carb so that all cylinders get a...

    well, they say it injects a swirl of air into the inlet manifold, but how the valve does this through a 90 deg bend and a convoluted tube, then into an area of fast moving air, i dont know. In principal, if you blew smoke through a straw, out the window on a windy day (wind blowing left to...

    BTW 200nm, if you do have 200nm torque, then this would equate to: 200 x 8.85 = 1770 lbs/in 1770/12 = 147.5 lbs/ft
