Also I seem to have a small leak coming from the fav now, what can cause it to drip? I also noticed that both yellow lights come on when I step on the gas a bit but I should have no failsafe functionality since my car is SC tfsi correct? Should I just disable the failsafe in the controller by setting to ecs?

Which part of the FAV developed a small leak?

Move DHB to DFS will disable your failsafe completely.

I only see a drip coming from the bottom of the fav so assuming it's coming from the middle somewhere? Also do I need a checvalve to run the one pigtail 0.8mm jet or are they built in for those as well? TIA

You need to return the FAV to us for full leak test. you can purchase a checkvalve from our online shop.

Default Re: Want to install custom meth plate

So leak doesn't seem to be existent anymore, maybe a loose fitting at first? Couple other questions:
Is it better to run the controller full boost or idc/boost for the 3.0tfsi engine?
If basing off boost what's the best way to set the controller trimmers? Say I want to have spray start at 8psi and max at 14psi? How do I dial that in?
Also it seems I can only get the SC meter to sense flow by cranking all the way clockwise. If I leave it at 12 o'clock it will only show 1 or 2 bars at WOT even though when testing the jet it would give a full meter that I could dial down to 5 or 6 bars as described in the manual. I have a 1.0mm 750cc jet at the TB. TIA for your help

Send as hi-res, well focused picture of controller top so I can see your settings.

1mm is a bit undersized for your car.

Hey Richard,
Here's photos of the controller front:

Back:

And gauge:

Let me know if you can't see these for some reason. Also what size jet would you recommend? Spraying just after the throttle body before the supercharger. Thanks

Question:

There may be a mis-match of map sensor. The controller is set to read from a 3-3.5bar map sensor, does your car boost over 30psi?

Move the PIR trimmer fully clockwise and let me know if it increases the flow reading.

Hey Richard,

So setting the piR trimmer fully clockwise gives a little better linear reading it seems like the meter picks up the flow a little better but I still have the SC dial maxed out clockwise, the bar graph maxes out at WOT though. Also I'm probably close to 20 PSI boost right now and don't think I'll ever see over 25psi. Thank you again.

With just one jet, you really need to solder link 1+2 to change the flow table. Instruction on page 22.
