  • Water Methanol Injection

    Have took delivery of a stage 2 kit from Devils Own this morning.
    Will be testing it out very shortly...

            So, in a (wal)nutshell, how does MWI work and why does it help minimise carbon build-up.

              afaik it is injected into the inlet mainfold cleaning the intake ports i think. though as i have said it would be better using a CC that is designed to stop the build up of Oil vapour straight away.

              the Provent 200 should suffice. and has a changeable filter. WMI however does give 10%+ performance

                Ive yet to find something in engineering that gives without taking away, so what are the downsides to WMI, issues over time?

                  As far as I'm aware WMI isn't typically used for it's cleaning purposes more-so for performance gains.

                  To put it simply, the downsides to this would be additional labour to the engine. If you're putting out the claimed extra 10% power you're effectively putting additional load on certain components.

                      It will help minimise carbon build up..i think, if water is being injected then i would imagine that when detonation occurs the water will lower the tempreture thus slowing down carbon build up..... hope i am right

                        I'm going to get it fitted ASAP but won't test it until I get the intakes cleaned out....when the nut blaster actually arrives
                        Plenty of videos on YouTube from WMI companies explaining its workings and it's benefits.

                          a good friend runs this on his 207 GTi - it'll be a very good addition for sure. Let me know how you get on Jamie as i've looked into this in the future once i get forged internals done and the rest of the stuff sorted out by end of the year.

                              Na its one over in Scotland here - used to be the owner of 207oc then he sold it. Cars running a forged engine, owen developments hybrid turbo, every forge catalogue part and some extra mods we carried out to it for making it run a little bit better. Also runs an E-Tuners stage 4+ map on the car
