RobDon's Leon -

So what was the problem with it?
Was there a build up of something holding the waste gate open?

 

[RobDon]

Gradual loss of boost until all I got was 0.7 BAR. I think the arm bent itself over time, or the actuator itself is goosed inside. I'll know soon enough. I'll replace it with a Forge actuator if it is.

presumably this is mapped in to the ECU?? as you dont want to have to keep pressing a button everytime you hit full load?

or am i missing something here?

Looking forward to seeing how much timing you can run with this kit Nice

Have you decided what ratio of water/meth you're going to run yet?

The kit comes with a progressive controller which feeds the water/methanol in gradually based on the boost settings you put in, no mapping required unless you want to advance the timing, but you can do that yourself with Unisettings or Lemmiwinks.

I have put a 49/51% mix into the tank, 49% methanol and 51% water.

ah thats right i did read about the MAP/MAF sensors being used, my bad!

Good stuff though be interesting to see what extra timing you can put in. Think i saw something from bill that you can 'roughly' work out the extra BHP by the degrees of timing you can add

 

[xnox202]

This is going to be promising. All the best RobDon! Make sure you take another engine-bay pic? I'm always admired by the works you've done!

Umm..

Now is this possible with N/A setups?

 

[h17och]

out of interest what swayed you to the devils own kit?

 

[RobDon]

Yeah something like 3 degrees of timing = 10bhp.

Price really plus no solenoid needed so simpler installation, never heard any bad things about them either.

 

[h17och]

what was the total price?

 

[jamiebennett81]

would it be worth doing the WMI on a k03s hybrid?

 

[Indy]

what was the total price?

If you thinking of buying one then Bills selling the whole kit for £289 + delivery probebly £300 all inc.

[RobDon]

I paid £269 all inc. to my door - that was for the stage 2 kit plus the nozzle adapter and delivery, direct from Devils Own. They gave me a $20 discount and a free tank float.

Good for any turbo car I reckon, keeps the intake temps down and allows you to increase boost and timing safely.

hmmmm...k03hybrid will be running max 25psi I reckon...which is more than CR turbos reckon it should be running

dont thought any more boost should be dialled in

 

[RobDon]

I won't be adding any more boost myself, just enjoying much cooler intake temps and advancing the timing.

That's the thing with these tiny hybrid K03's - they are pushed hard to make power.

swings and roundabouts....they aint laggy either

Does the advanced timing not bring extra boost with it whether you want it or not

No mate.
