water

[Chubbs090]

this is just a wild hair thought. if someone wanted to throw water injection on a non-turbo and not buy a kit. could it be possible to just get a NOS jet as your nozzel and just run it off your windshield wiper resvior? just a thought

some one with some experience needs to chime in on this one, but i dont think you can get enough pressure to properly atomize the water. once you have dropletts engine go boom!

like im saying this was a spur of the moment thought

 

[tractorman86]

can't fault ya for wondering.

If you look up the Splash system you will find all the stuff needed to do it yourself. It's been done on an NA before, and it does work. A Windsheild washer pump would not cut it for sure.

It may if it was pre-turbo or would it harm the turbo to run water/methanol through it

 

[tractorman86]

i think that would be a big no no

What benefit is water injecton on a NA 7.3?

Water/methonal injection on any turbo or non turbo motor will help control the pyro temps while uplling a grade heavy. I think the pressures needed are up around 250 lbs for best atomization of the fluid. Blue window washer fluid works about the best and is the cheapest to use. If I was doing this and only used water it would be distilled water for sure.
