[bicko]

cheers waynne, but now youve planted the seed lol how would i work this, do the injectors plumb into the inlet manifold, and what exactly do they do, obviusly thier there to cool the burn or summit?

Theres an interesting thread on water injection in the diesel forum - the principle is the same.

A lot of places are selling water injection kits now which make the job easier.

The idea is that the flame is held back slightly and this allows a more efficient burn and reduces the propensity for engine knock.

Water/methanol

or water/alcohol,

Is the usual way to have the system set up. It lowers cylinder head temps primarilly, which can allow higher boost values before onset of detonation.

where I can find a water alcohol injection system which vary the amount of water injected into the cylinders as a function of the rpm and has a injector for each cylinder?
