i have been thinking about using this...i used it on a supercharged Saleen Explorer that i owned and it worked great...allowed me to run 4 degrees more timing...but i am wondering how much it would benefit our cars since you would have to place this before the supercharger/intercooler?

i may see about looking into this some more, but i just ordered the phenolic spacers from evosport, so i am going to see how much they help first...

do you think you have an idea of how much hp it might add?

I used to run water injection and methanol injection on my old project car. I only used it when I was running monster boost (26-30psi) on low octane (93) fuel. I wouldn't want it on a benz.

well, the only problem with water/meth injection is that it only adds power by allowing you to run:

A. more boost

B. more timing



otherwise, you actually run the risk of reducing your HP...the main variable here is that we don't know how much the stock ECU will react to the water/meth injection by adding more timing, since you can't just slap on a boost controller and turn up the boost

the only other way is to be able to tune it on a dyno, which is what i did with the Saleen...


but to answer your question, if, and that is a BIG IF, the stock ECU will compensate by adding some timing, then you could gain anywhere in the neighborhood of 20-30 HP...

imo i dont think its worth it for such a big mod for the hp gain

Eurocharged Rick

well, if you consider that pulleys are your best bang for the buck at $900 for the cheapest set...it may or may not be a good investment, but it is only $300-400 for the water/meth setup...so it may turn out to be one of the best, even if you only gain 10HP...
