What forum?

(BTW, I've notice posting has dropped off quite a bit since they banned most of their key posters.)

Pre-turbo injection will be like sand blasting your compressor blades. 130,000rpm wheel + liquid contact with the blade edges = wear.

Are you banned on schuman automotive forums?

Well the idea is that only a small nozzle would be used pre-turbo. The smaller the nozzle the finner the mist.

Then I plan to inject it just outside the air filter box, the water has a longer time to evaporate.

I was thinking of a ~60cc/min nozzle pre-turbo and ~300-400 cc/min nozzle right after the turbo.

Since 02/23/2008 When Henry went on a childish rampage and banned 5 of his top posters because he does not understand how copyright works.

Any water injection at all pre-turbo is a bad idea.

Waterjets use water and a cutting media. We use finely ground garnet.

No mods yet, unless you include installing a working CD/radio.

I have a straight-pipe side dump...and LPG injection is in the works...

Has anyone tried pre-turbo water injection? Steam shouldn't hurt a turbo, it gets some steam already along with soot etc.

The "cool" part of water injection pre-turbo is that steam has a 1:16000 expansion rate, could make for some extra fast spool-up and boost with 900*F exhaust if upstream enough. Plus cooling the charge slightly, I've been considering it also.

Water droplets contacting the wheel is not good.
