I am thinking of using a water injection setup. are they really that good?

 

i have the smc kit i paid 500 dollars i think it is the best one out there,also a friend has one on his buick grand national can run 26 pound of boost with 89 octane.comes with 100psi pump in tank.

 

i made my own you can see it on my site at
http://darcom.org

 

looks great! I guess these things seem to work awsome for everyone I have talked to. I think this is just what I need to use.

 

Same here. Home brew. Works fine..

I had an SMC kit. I ran 23-24psi on 93 octane. It was an older single nozzle kit that had adjustable turn on and spray.

The new progressive kits are much better. Either the SMC or alkycontrol.com

 

linl to the SMC one?

Ive seen the alky one and its nice. never heard of the SMC unless Im just not catching on to the abreviation

 

SMCenterprises.com????? trying to remember......

 

Yep, http://www.smcenterprises.com/

Mine was 3 years old, so a lot of new stuff was added. I never had a problem with mine but I was going to do the switch over to alkycontrol.com because of the progressive. Then Steve started a progressive one also. Either one will work better than the one I had.

Part throttle would chuggle with the setup I had. Once it started spraying, it sprayed at what ever the pump speed was. With the progressive, its a gradual build up of pressure to what ever you set for max pressure. So you can have it come on at real low boost and it will ramp up with more boost. You control how much the ramp up is.

 

Thanks.. I found it this morning right after I posted. Had a link saved for it.

 

Are you spraying the water/alky though the NOS plate behind the TB? I'm interested in running water injection in my TT IROC until I can put in larger injectors and custom tune the prom.

 

no i have a jet pluged in to the bottom of my intake tube after the blower. i use the plate for a 100 shot of nos.

 

What did you use for the jet? Nitrous nozzle?

What controls do you use?

 

no it did not make the water mist like i had hoped ,so i found a nossel they sell ay the hardware store ,i cant rember the name of it but its in the section were they have the yard watering parts.its just a jet with holes. sorry its kinda of a veg ancer but i post a pic win i take it out to clean.

 

Here are a few good links for you for a DIY setup.
