Welcome to our new sponsor Lecatona, a brand dedicated to enhancing performance for VAG group sports cars, including SEAT, Audi, Volkswagen and Škoda. Specializing in High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) upgrades.
i know of a Cupra in my country that has the Devil's Own Stage 2 Progressive wmi kit fitted. i made gains of up to 14whp on the dyno. intake temps drop to about ambient..sometimes a couple of degrees higher than ambient. timing pull 0, from the top down. installation is similar to the FR..the new DVC30 controller requires a boost link to measure boost as it has a built in MAP sensor.
there is a link to an installation guide on the www.alcohol-injection.com/forum for the GTI, very similar to the Leon's. however the guide is for the previous generation controller, although fitment of all the hardware is spot on.
Dan can these kits be run with GIAC or do you need to have Revo so that you can control boost/timing etc. have you noticed a differance in performance
ideally u need a tune thats optimized for the water meth ie. 100octane file. MAF based units spray according to the increase in air flow, the more it'll spray towards redline as the air flow is max at that point. MAP based controllers spray according to boost readings.
there's a most definite performance increase, also car can run consistently for longer as opposed to a car that doesn't have wmi.
Im sure giac will do some kind of software for it, gaic are big in the states and im sure the yanks will be running wmi.
Youd be better off giving a giac dealer a call to see what they offer.

Yes mate of course you can, lowered intake temps will always improve performance wether you have access to adjusting the timing or not.
cool, cheers guys. i may give regal a call tomorrow to see what they recommend, i am not fussed about power gains i just want to see less power drop when the car heatsoaks
i assure u that you'll eat those words one day when u get the kit. alot of people in the US gain up to 22whp from wmi. are u just gonna settle for delayed heatsoak?..you'll want the most out of it when u start runnin it.
do a search on MAF/MAP based water meth injection kits on the www.golfmkv.com & www.vwvortex.com forums,sure you'll find some very informative info on both.

Check this kit out from devilsown http://www.methanol-injection.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=29
must say, i think the Boost Cooler TFSI Stage II VC25D looks like the better of the two kits although more expensive but is made for the 2.0tfsi. think i will go for that. just see if i can get statlers to set it up for me when i am down in 2 weeks.
also think i will need to get a larger tank so that i dont need to fill it every couple of days!

i know but its not that expensive really, can you choose to switch the pump off and run as normal or do you have to play about with the map settings?
