    Yes there is positive and negative effects. Positive effect is the acceleration is much smoother and more responsive. The negative effect was, smoke was visible(VERY THIN smoke which can only be visible during night time when flashed with light accross it) during idle even with egr blanked.

    When i removed the TMIC, ive noticed that there were lots of black(dirt) oil. And ive assumed that those oils causes the engine to emit THIN(very thin) smoke.

    Recently ive relocated my nozzle(4gph) in my pre-ic and noticed last night, tonight that the thin smoke were gone even i put a flash light on it. Im assuming that my IC was cleansed by water/alcohol injection. Also smelled the exhaust, smelled like water vapor or kind'a hot metal..

    HTH
    you mean effect of pre IC? Not post IC?

    I also notice the thin smoke at night when i look at my rear view mirror.

    Hi Guys,

    Tanong ko lang sana kung magkano ba yung WAI(Stage 2) sa Berrima? Saan ba mas magandang bumili Berrima or Speedlab? Tsaka magkano na rin ang pa-install? 1KZ-TE nga pala yung engine ng Hi-ace ko so magbebenefit ba ito sa WAI..? Ilang oras nga pala ang pa-install? Tsaka kasama na ba sa pa-install yung Dyno test?

    Tsaka wala bang magiging prblem pag nag-spray ng mist sa makina? Hindi ba ito hahalo sa engine oil kung sakaling hindi na gaanong good condition yung piston rings ng engine? What I meant is I bought it 2nd hand so para sa akin ok pa naman siguro yung mga engine internal niya?

    TnX..?

    Hindi naman sa naninira ako, ive been to speedlab and berrima, hands down ako sa berrima.. Very accomodating people and very METICULOUS

    Sa speedlab, kung hindi ko pa sasabihin na itago yung wires, wala! Parang bihon siguro yung sasakyan ko and they never follow INSTRUCTIONS like "remove the battery when installing"

    They never insulated my wires in the engine bay. Daming hidden charges, they told me that the installation will cost around 3500.. But nung bayaran na, WTF! 5000php? Considering They failed to make the kit working properly. Very Disappointing. Noon hanggang ngaun.

    Also about a year ago, i bought one of their header pipes for my jazz. The description says, no modification, purely bolt-on but then after installation, ive been hearing alot of metal-metal collision underneath the car, there was not enough clearance between the pipe and the body.. They had to do alot of bending and hamering in my jazz.

    The irony, when i was there having my kit installed, a vios also complains about the metal-metal contact underneath his car after installation of the header.

    Wala na kasi yung dating installer nila. Yung sa akin ay doon ko kinuha at very neat ang pagka gawa even yung stainless pipe na pina bricate, Ngayon pangit pa yung place nila. Sa Berrima very accomodating yung mga tao doon. Bow ako sa kanila.

    Already tried both of them and IMHO they both have their pros and cons.

    Berrima - diesel experts with a "peaceful ambiance nung shop", and neat ang installation even the fabricated tank
    holder is superb
    sumabit lng sila sa fabrication ng tubings where the nozzle attaches, nagleleak panu and nahihirapan mag
    read ng boost pressure reading and paglagay nung on and off switch nung controller

    Speedlab - ok sa fabrication ng tubings and yung mga silicone attachments are available
    my only complain is that they don't offer the WA injection with the boost controller (sa kanila sana ako
    nagpakabit) regarding sa customer relations nila mukang ok naman

    Yung setup nung sakin Berrima naginstall nung WA injection sa speedlab fabrication nung tubings and silicone attachments ;)
    BTW naka 3 palit ako initially nung controller nung tubings ko was fabricated by Berrima, nung sa Speedlab mag 2 years na ok pa din

    Heres what you need if your planning on attaching the nozzle in rubber/silicon coupler.

    This is my devil's own nozzle mounting adapter attached in my stock oem rubber coupler which currently im not using. Bought silicon(blue samco) to replace my old one.

    This was the previous setup :



    Current setup
    Nozzle attachment:



    boost tap (dont have a pix of the previous one):



    this attachment absorbs the engine vibration (bulging part) so that there are no leaks since the post intercooler tubing is more stable

    22K pesos ata sa kin sa Berrima. Last time I ask, speedlab offers only stage 1 ewan ko lng ngayon. The installation took only a few hours (3-4max), but the fabrication of the tank mounts took a few days so I have to return for the installation after they made the measurements. ( I want mine inside the engine bay). Dyno Test is not included at that time but if you avail of their chip (25K) pwede isama, but that was more than a year ago. Can't comment about your engine.

    Regarding dun sa possible problem sa engine, the Berrima guys told me that the WA injection is very similar if they do steam cleaning of diesel engines minus the 50% alcohol, so parang "nasteam cleaning" engine mo everytime the pump activates ;) dun palang bawi na siguro gastos mo. I think the keyword there is "steam" so the proper selection of the nozzle is important. The only theoretical problem in my google search in WA injection is a hydrolock, added the theoretical word since there are still no reports of that happening. Some even argues that the amount of water, in mist form, being injected (as long as your nozzle is ok) will not cause hydrolock.
