Oh, I just spoke to Courtenay and the target lambda on my setup is 0.8, not 0.78 as stated previously in this thread.

Richard, the car feels better than it was with WI before. I'll have to drive it a bit more to work out if it feel better or worse than no WI at all, I'll l et you know in a few days. First impressions are pretty good though.

Thanks for today, always interesting when I pay you a visit. :D

Mike,

Sounds encouraging, I must admit that I am surpised by the change so far. You will probably post more impression as you drive the car more.

You can actually make yourself a WI on/off switch by the blue led we installed today. Just short across the led will have the same effect as "shutting off" thr WI. You can do the switching whilst on boost (watch the road !!!), this way you can feel the change more readily.

I will post a few pictures of the re-located water jet later.

Ah - good idea. I'll wire that in this weekend. :) My photos were not great, so I thought I'd wait for yours instead of posting mine.

I have just re-sized this picture of the relocated jet position.

Hows the car going ?

K3FUS 22-12-2005 11:11 AM

yes please do tell......

MikeWarner 22-12-2005 04:40 PM

It is difficult to tell. I'll fit a switch so that I can turn it on and off while driving - hopefully then I'll be able to feel the difference.
