Re: water/alky injection in na vehicles

you don't notice a huge power gain in the winter....that's all you would be similuting. Its different when it comes to turbo cars. The air is compressed and that creates heat. If you can cool the air to 90F you're doing good and that's where Water/Alcohol injection tends to help.

The Subaru STi has water injection so that the intercooler doesn't heat soak so bad....which reduces teh efficiency.
