Helps reduce inlet charge/combustion temps.

In diesel engines, Meth helps engine burn more of the diesel fuel thus reducing smoke and producing more power.

For petrol engines, will reduce knocking by raising octane level of fuel - you have higher compression ratios before detonation.

Progressive kit is £285, and they can fit for around £80 to £100.

I had quote for my toledo 1.9tdi of £420 to fit progressive kit with a tank in the boot.

Can alcohol/water injection damage my motor?
Not if installed and used properly. As long as the injection system is working properly, it can only do good things. Since the alcohol will dissolve carbon buildup, It will help keep your plugs, valves, and combustion chambers very clean.

stage 2 kit is £289inc vat
fitting is dependant on spec and what the customer wants tank wise etc

adjustment to ecu (petrol 1.8t on me7) is part of the install.
hourly rate is £45/hour+vat

shall I take it this would be the cost for a kit? or would it be different on a diesel?
