Ideally you should use Evian - but you can use Volvic or Vittel - but these need to be used with a Hydro Booster because of the higher WHN (Water Hydro Number) used in Japan.

If you want to be flash you can use Perrier sparkling water which gives more of a Ching Ching!! as it hits the intercooler.

if you want a LOT of fun wait til your m8's out borrow the keys to his car and have a "tinkle" in the bottle..... then smile everytime he mentions his car smells of p@ss!!!!



Please note for safety reasons it may be easier to use a milk bottle of similar first then empty into the tank. I cannot be held responsible for any injuries however caused by using the above method!!

FUnny as hell tho takes ages for the smell to go aswell!!
