Till now I was running a number 3 nozzle with my water meth kit. This nozzle size is meant for a K03 turbo car. Till now I was only using the kit to help with the prevention of carbon buildup. There was a cooling effect on the boost but not as it should. The Snow […]
My Golf 5 GTI is now an absolute joy to drive. The car is really strong and stable on the road. I started noticing that some times the car has a bit of lag on the turbo spool up. For a regular person, this would not be a problem but for me, it needs to […]
