I cant help thinking that it is better to run the water injection from the SECS monitor (only if you have one - obviousely ), for a start it is easy to adjust/set up, and you get a "run" indication for the pump.

Also, it is easy to test if the installation is actualy working by connecting temporary a spare jet poking through the bonnet vent, then lower the pump run point - say 18 PSI boost with 12 ° charge temp, then take the car on a run and observe for a nice spray of water

Doug i binned off my SECs monitor so that is not an option!
When this engine/ecu were in the rally car a wire from the ecu/loom was used to trip the water injection and i just want to make sure i connect the right one!
Can anyone confirm what Dingy has said???

Thats not entirely fair spadge.Just coz u dont get an answer as quickly as u want, doesnt mean that we are kids that know fuck all. If u wanted an answer so quickly why didnt u get off ur arse and phone Stu, Karl, Mark Shead or any one of the other tuners that use this forumn. Just coz we dont know an answer to a particular problem doesnt mean we know fook all.

Dingy your reply was appreciated thank you but you said

same as all ecu's init

?

Pin 12 negative trip


The word init didn't inspire confidence as it told me you wern't sure!

Rich
I did not say everyone was a kid i just pointed out that a lot of the knowledgable people that used to be on here don't seem to be around much anymore but there are a lot of kids talking bollox all over the place

Stu i had no assurance that Steve's answer was correct as he didn't sound 100% sure himself so i therefore required a more definate answer which true i did get from Kev but only after i had retreived this thread from half way down the second page with my above reply!

ok spadge, but if u require such a quick answer then call one of the tuners who im sure will help. It will be a lot quikcer than sitting around moaning coz there arent enuff knowledgable people on line and suggesting that they have been replace with kids that know fuck all.
