Few videos. I will be adding more of the rest of the car meet, but I have to edit the rest first. Will have them up once I have access to my computer.

The guy at the dyno had it in 3rd. Just wish my tranny wasn't the weak point chasing the mustang 3rd through 5th top end I could keep up, but I have to be so careful in 1st and 2nd.

Hello all! It's been a while since I've had an update, but after some time, and the accumulation of some more funds I went ahead and purchased an AEM water/meth kit, Synapse BOV, and the Symtech map clamp. Overall not a bad install, but ran into a few gremlins as usual. I must admit that I LOVE how the car runs with the meth, and running 20psi on a daily basis isn't too bad either! The sound the engine makes when injecting the meth is INCREDIBLE!!! The Synapse is pretty bad ass too! Got the pics below for you guys!
Meth Nozzle Meth Filter, and "T" connection to the MAP line for the water/meth controller. Here is a pic of the MAP Clamp, Meth injection line, and the Meth injection boost signal line. This is where I mounted the 1 gallon water/meth tank and the pump. Meth Tank...this stuff runs out QUICK! This is the switch I installed for the whole system. The red button on top glows when I press it to activate the system. The green LED below cycles when water/meth is actually being injected into the motor. Synapse BOV -------------------- |

I really dont have anything to tweak still just stock ecu. cool, just so i understand though.. we can run the meth kit safely without a tune and run higher boost still? the way i see it we could because the wrc had injection and essentially the stock 3rd gen is the same motor with out the injection right? just wondering because i have my kit mounted but just not connected to my piping yet. what size nozzle did you go with? -------------------- st205 powered ss3 coupe

The aem kit didnt list the gpm on the nozzle. It is the medium sized nozzle that supports up to 350. Im not under the impression that any damage is being done, but perhaps not maximum gains. Just worried to tune the motor just for meth. I have no interest in loosing functionality of my DD. I hope someone else chimes in with on opinion as my experience in this matter is pretty lim.

I don't think you need to tune for meth. AFAIK the stock ecu is set up to correctly account for higher boost, so the meth only acts as a knock suppressor. I'm sure there's super high horsepower cars running standalones that would need tuning to eke out every last bit of power but that would be overkill for our engines

Glad to hear its running well! lol -------------------- st205 powered ss3 coupe

Just kinda wanted to judge interest if there was any. I made this brace for my rear lower control arms. This one is made of stainless, but I would make out of aluminum in the future for anyone that actually wants one. I could feel a difference after I bolted it on. Feels like the suspension is doing more of the work...(less flexing).

I feel it most when I'm at highway speed. Just feels like the rear end is a little more active. It's really hard to explain, but I guess the little bumps in the road become more....feelable???

probably between 45 and 50 bucks. really depends on what material the majority of people want. i've had a few pm's that are requesting stainless instead of aluminum because of strength and durability.
