limp mode when meth/water injection - Audi s3 8L

Hi, just thought I'd ask, my audi goes into limp mode using, code: "system too rich on bank 1" without it's fine. Their maybe more than one combined reasons for the problem, ie leaky injectors?

One problem suggested was that I was adding wm too early causing the iat sensor (1psi, silly i know) to overcool causing a rich mixture (confusing the computer to run choke) to trigger the fault code. However now its 5psi starting point and still occurs.

I find I can avoid limp mode by keeping the revs up, stayin on throttle.

Any suggestions?

You don't need methanol, only water.
That'll fix it.
