This was fitted for homologuation pupose on the 2500 T34 cossies..as whell as the air to water chargecooler.
But this water injection system has to be ugraded to work properly: new pump, new pipes and if you want use the ECU to drive it you will also need correct EEPROM and to had a wire in the factory loom (and of course a relay)

Obviouly yes
The pipes can't stay in place under pressure and the pumps start to leak quite soon (in my car anyway).
The best is to replace all the pipes by polyamide ones and the pumps by a race pump from aquamist (if you can afford it) or by a Flojet that you can get from Mike Rainbird shop here:

Wait for other comments..
