WOW 4.8s is rapid for petrol let alone diesel. I think 4.5s is achievable if you perform a weight saving exercise. As an experiment, can you strip off the rear doors and seats, spare wheel etc. and retry the 0-60? As an aside, I've read that you can make even more gains using nitrous on diesel engines - can you do an experiment with this? Keep up the good work!

[@paulsouth4794]

Zf is a good box .

[@paulsouth4794]

Awsome bit of tech . Grabe a data monster from banks . Gale Banks has a lot of info on water/ meth injection . Just out of interest , would the water meth be better injected after the intercooler to reduce the air density even further? Or would not the heat absorption of evaporation matter where on the intake plumbing ?

[@DarksideDevelopments]

This is injected post intercooler, I would worry about pooling in the IC if injected before. Let the Intercooler do the hard work and the water finish the job.

[@danza4519]

So I’ve got my 2018 v6 and I’ve timed mine car with the stock turbo everything stock and I have gotten 6 sec flat, all I have done is a fuel rail chip that T’s in to the fuel rail and there is a fuel that has about 20 clicks of settings and I have my laptop plugged in seeing what is happening and we kept tuning over a couple weeks as the directions said for the car computer to learn. All in all tricking the computer thinking there wasn’t enough fuel to feed it more fuel. What I wanted to ask is is it dangerous to do this because I have been running this for about eight months and the only downside is if I go one more click then it might fuel cut. But where I am now it hasn’t fuel cut for about two months and I drive very hard. I know I shouldn’t but I treat it like my late 800 hp FG F6

Does just adding the water/methanol add power or did you tweak the calibration to suite the W/M mixture?

Amazing work! I would pony up the money for a non-methanol kit for a North America version 2013 VW Touareg TDI . Would your kit (less injection) be workable on the 2013 Touareg TDI ? Not interested in 0-60 speed, but looking for great mid range response , and more power for towing a caravan (3000kg).

[@lavrentievv]

You're losing power with the water meth before the turbo is at full spool. Did you just install an "on/off" pump, or is the water spray gradual? I think if it were gradual, you can make more on the high end, and lose less torque on the low end.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

these are just on or off

[@lavrentievv]

@@DarksideDevelopments Might be worth switching it off when there's no boost then. Or add about 4 degrees of injection timing pre-boost to compensate for the temp drop at tdc
