Default Anyone had dealing with Water Injection Systems for Turbos?

Just got my Spearco catalogue through with some interesting stuff in it. I was looking into replicating exTTreme's custom Intercooler which filled the space on the middle lower grille.

Not sure how much this will be and what cost but they do advertise a water injection system for the turbo at $210!

Comes with a .4gallon tank which can be put in the engine bay (if they can find space!)

Any suggestions/thoughts/comments?

Default Steve, thanks for the link - interesting read (more)

OK, so as ObsessTT says, he made this up as there wasn't one on the market. Sounds like a fairly in-expensive way to cool the air to get some "oomph"

I'll be doing some more research into this with Spearco and some others as for that price (under $300) it's worth giving it a go (providing the engine's not at risk)

Default Here's the Jackson Racing pump.....>>>

Go here and scroll right. A bit pricey at $549 though. A few months ago I fould a link (lost) for a boost controlled mister for cooling the Intercoolers with water. It was pretty trick and controllable. I think it was from Australia and was cheap as I recall. I've been thinking about this concept. Let me know if you find anything!<ul><li><a href="http://www.jacksonracing.com/pages/partshonda.html">Jackson Racing (parts)</a></li></ul>
