Imagine if Fred Flinstone ate some of Popeye's Spinach!!
That would never work! For starters Fred Flinstone is 100% carnivore and if you remember spinach only ever worked on Popeyes arms not legs wink
Oh, but if he were stronger, wouldn't his car handle better? hehe

Isn't that just a way of not going for bigger injectors and a remap?
The problem with RST's is that it is mechanical fuel injection, you cannot just replace the injectors & remap it. Hence the need for a "fifth" injector, it is a crude but effective method of getting the extra fuel you need to match the airflow.

What happens at MOT time? Doesn't the car need a working window washer if its got one?

Another trade secret here: bolt a desk fan:



onto your bonnet, facing forwards. When you want extra power then lean out of the window and switch it on to max speed. If you enjoy drifting then make sure it's one of those oscillating ones.

If you have a saloon then you can try a similar trick on the bootlid with some fire extinguishers!
Just read this... Even my wife is crying with laughter. Well done!

I was not aware of that so fair point. That being the case, I'm surprised it's taken 8 pages for it to be mentioned given the number of experts in this thread!
It's much more fun just to call you a retard for not knowing it, than to tell you.
