100% meth = massive corrosion of all the aluminum parts it comes in contact with, but the power increase is mental  :signLOL:

it is very very very slow corrosion rate and it only injects over 11 psi so it cleans itself lol.

Just keep an eye on everything.  This is what 50/50 mix did to a 1.8T's intake valve guide after 5k or so:



Was burning 2L of oil every 500 miles!

I will only ever run 75% water and 25% meth on cars I fit it to.

Keith swapped my RS4 valve for a new one today to see if it improved the top end power dip / fuel issue

Will find out in the morning if  it improves anything otherwise its HPFP fault finding failing that mapping / calibrating out the problem.

Then another dyno run and drive home  :driver:
