Why?

Punto is hardly high performance like the system is designed for.

my turbo cracked and i changed it's turbo and manifold with td04-hl turbo
and the government changed the petrol price
92 octane about 0.26 Sterling
95 octane about 0.55 Sterling
and with the 92 octane the car doesn't get it's full performance due to knocking :bang:

I can't afford the price of 95 as my total in come per month is 94 Sterling (yes that's the income of a fresh graduated engineer here in Egypt)

So how can you afford this contraption then? Better off spending the money on the better fuel in my opinion.

according to my consumption more than 120 liter per month the prices different between 92 and 95 the water methanol set will cover in less than a year

But you're still using rubbish fuel which your car has trouble running with, I can't see the logic in your method unfortunatly.

I have to go with what i have the only problem with the 92 octane is the knocking i didn't under stand what do you mean by rubbish if you mean it has impurities all the petrol here in egypt have a lot of impurities even the 95

Its not the impurities its the octane. This system isn't going to prevent knock, its designed to improve an already correctly functioning system.

If you use poor fuel the car cannot run on this system will not magic it away, you basically need to use the correct fuel, if you can't afford it you either need to buy a car you can afford to use, or not use it as much. May sound harsh, but you've a nearly new car which you're trying to run on something its not designed to run on.

Water injection is a very effective anti knock (anti-pinging) device. It's effect is exactly like that of using higher octane fuel. Injected in sufficient quantity, an engine that requires 116 octane fuel can operate without knock on 93 octane pump gasoline! That's based on straight water. Water/methanol is even more effective. Our kit is configured to inject less water, but enough to give an engine running on 93octane (r+m)2 pump gasoline the same anti-knock performance as if it had 102 octane gasoline. If you live in an area where 91 octane (r+m)/2 is all you can get, it raises the effective number to about 100 octane.

Not sure how the costs work out, nor how effective it is, but can't you buy a bootle of octain boosting fuel additive?
