Nice video. I just got the AEM V3 WMI kit. It’s all pretty similar to the snow performance kit, but I’ve decided I’m going to use the OEM windshield washer fluid tank. Just will be a cleaner install, plus the low fluid indicator will light up on my dash through the OEM light, and the washer tank holds just as much fluid as the tank that comes with the kit.

Great videos. Did you notice any throttle response improvement from off the line? I'm at 6k feet and my little 1.4t now has the worst throttle response from off the line due to the altitude. I'm fully tuned with supporting mods but doesn't overcome the low air density at 6k+ feet

AMAZING VIDEO ! thank you, one question though, for the ground . Is it necessary to run the ground wires from the front to the back? It's just ground, tapping it to a screw in the front and doing the same thing to the pumps ground and all the other ground in the rear would be the same right? or am I missing something? thank you

Just a word of experience, petroleum products like wd40 and rubber like hoses don't mix, petroleum will deteriorate rubber, sorry to be that guy, use a silicone lubricant on rubber hoses, and have a nice day, good vid tho

@talon8u 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for making this video! It’s nice to see this since I’ll be doing this install right away. My Snow performance kit (SNO210) is a little different but allot of it is the same. Which nozzle are you using? Mine only came with 2 nozzles and I think they’re both too big. 😂 Have you started to use water/methanol yet or are you still waiting on tuning? How do you like it so far?

@ProjectMini 3 жыл бұрын

Make sure you put your solenoid after the pump, i made a mistake when i installed mine. Im using the #4 that is .225 i believe. Im still just using distilled water and it’s been great so far

@talon8u 3 жыл бұрын

@@ProjectMini Mine came with a #4 and a #6 nozzle. I figured I should be using a #3 nozzle so I just ordered that. My kit has the VC-50 gauge/controller which I’ll mount in the vent on the left side of the steering wheel with the Cravenspeed vent mount. Is there a difference in functionality between the controllers? They both seem to have the same two boost settings for start and full spray.

@ProjectMini 3 жыл бұрын

I don’t know anything about the vc-50 so i can’t help there. The #4 does a good job but I’ll most likely go to a #3 after I install the direct port methanol injection kit

@@ProjectMini Oh. You want to spray direct into the ports? How will you monitor iat’s like that? The car will also ‘think’ iat’s are higher. Will that have a negative effect on things?
