Thanks for the update. I hope you won't be disappointed.

I am not familiar with the mini but I am certin where are plenty of install on Jan's website. You will be the first HFS-4 equipped R56.

Richard,

I am interested in using braided steel hoses with my HFS-4. Do you offer these?

Thank you,

Hank

I just ran mine through the cabin of my Clubman. I used it as an excuse to fix some rattles too. It took me THE ENTIRE DAY, I wanted to make sure I did a good job, so I took out the panels on both sides and the seats. I ran the power up the drivers side and the hose up the passenger side. I didn't want to do them both on the same side since the space for wire was so limited. It worked out great! It was just time consuming.

ok ive always been keen to run WI on my GT four celica, but im curious. will WI gain me any power if i cannot re tune to take advantage of the increase knock resistance?
i run a stock non adjustable ecu with a water to air intercooler so intake temps even when hot never go past 60'c even in 35'c summer days. i like the idea of WI but at this stage am not sure i will see any real benefits?? thanks guys

Can you increase boost?

AFR will be leaner for sure but WI will welcome that. It appeared that you can push a few more psi quite safely with water/methanol injection, leaving the tune untouched.
