    LOL yeah kinda If you7 want to be that picky then a straight 8% is about as techie What you want is to map water needed against load and water needs are temp and det related so very different to fuel requirements. Maybe the WRC boys got to this level of complexity but it would all come down to suck it and see testing.

    To my mind your approach is more like adding a CRAY computer and then only using a poofteenth of it's capacity which is still more than the job needs

    I don't think you can accuse me of being tech shy now eh ? Fit for purpose

    I got cams and intake mods to do first as well as fixing exhaust, then I'll get onto my brother about getting me the right shurflo pump and try some water injection loving .

    Bear in mind my surflow pump was damn loud. I hooked it up to only fire up once the supercharger was running.

    Once the supercharger was running on my car, you couldn't hear anything
