what are the pros and cons you have experienced?

i got mine set-up, i just got to turn on the pump and dyno tune

what brand injection did you get...ive heard that some leak...maybe they fixed that prob...im considering water when i get my blower

 

Been using it on my turbo'd setup. There are no cons unless u flood the chamber with way too much h20. It prevents detonation and cools down cylinder walls. Cools down intake air too.

what system are u using, and has anyone else had any experience with the spearco kit? are they good or bad?

 

I think we're going to try water injection for track use.. The aquamist gear is very good but pricey, don't go with a cheap-*** setup, you won't get the atomization you need.

 

we are using a 50/50 mix of water and methanol. work very well. we normally see intake temps drop to 30-35 deg no matter what the out side temps.

Ditto! Same here.

 

Water injection is the way to go. I built my own water injection system. works very well. And very nice lude you have there!

I have the Jackson Racing (Aquamist) kit. Very nice kit but decided to just run race gas 24/7....anyone want to buy it?

price wise why the hell would you run race gas all the time?

water is free

Well...the way I look at it, it is a small price to pay for guaranteed octane. I just don't want to worry about anything. I also heard that WA., OR. gas has constantly changing ethanol levels that will severely affect my tuning. I can get 55 gallon drum of race fuel for abut $180...it should last me a while since it won't be daily driven.

sup....what brand or kit would u recommend for someone who doesnt want to build a system for themselves....my set up at a minium will be JRSC 6psi dry n2o 35 shot hondata s200 w/ boost n 3 step n n2o controls...do u think my engine will not be running hot enough to need water injection? and do u think using n2o w/ it will cause some complications?

Id agree! Run a 50/50 mix of methanol and water. There is somebody on this board and made like 510whp on 91 with water/methanol. Thats awesome!

Heh.. I pay $4/gallon almost for 91 here in Canada.. so it's not that unaffordable to run race gas all the time.

Water Injection is nifty though - has anyone done a teardown on an engine that has run WI for any length of time?

 

ya, apparently the carbon sludge build up that 'builds up' in the engine is vaporized all the time by the steam produced in the cylinders....

 

Wondering more if there's any wear problems on the exhaust valves, or additional wear on the cylinders from that residue not being there.. soot is an effective lubricant .

thats us.. we did some more street tuning and we are now running that boost (25ish) on just pump gas ( the beauty of 7.5:1 compression). we are reconfiguring the methanol system and gona shoot for alot more.

 

damn that is great, good luck with tuning

Yes this a is a awesome feature of water injection. Nice clean internals!
