Competition nos or water injection? best bang for the buck?

Best results for lowering egts and which makes safer power. Running 150 edms and edge drag and new Killer B and still have egts issues. Want this for competition uses only!

Water will do more for EGT reduction.

Is the water system for everyday driving? I personally will never spray water where I have oil. Water and oil wll never mix and how do we know the water is always burned completely? I think of the slobering mess Schied has. NOS? It brings down the intake air temps and makes more HP. Me? I would like to get to get the air over water with the ice box in the floor board. Now that would bring the temps down. But then, this would not be for everyday driving. Can't afford enough ice. :{ To each his own, I guess.

You will not want to run NO2 for everyday use.

Hey Kevin just buy my truck & be done with it. Do you want to lower your everyday driving around temps or for competition?If it was for competition i would use nitrous. Twins do a wonderful job of lowering temps you know.

If you spray water where the oil is you have the nozzles in the wrong location. If the system is set up properly you will burn all of it. You have to remember to run the engine a few after injecting water and not shuting it down right away.

Doug... ..... That never was a thought. Hard to believe, but true.



Ponci... ..... Still where the fuel goes is oil. True, not directly into the crankcase, but on top of the pistons is close enough for me. I do agree though, down the track, if you do not want to run just no 2, spray NOS. Big, cool, instant, HP. We still run on no 2 and will let y'all do the other stuff.



Air over water sounds pretty neat. Might try that.







Some folks just so sensitive.

There is water alone or Water \ methanol injection like HOSS mentioned above and is common used among forced induction performance vehicles.



Snow claims to dramatically reduce EGT and increase power in diesels. What I know of snow is from racing turbocharged gassers and have not used in in a diesel but was wondering about it as well.



I would imagine wanting to use a Hobbs switch for daily drivers. I believe Snow offers two kits one with and one without hobbs. Simply activate when you run hard \ increased boost \ towing up hills etc. Propane systems use hobbs switch as well.



Fluid spray with force induction followed by high compression with correct dose wouldn't atomization be extreme enough that it would all be burned and not effect our 10-11 quarts of oil in our trucks.



I have listened people speaking of tuning waterspray systems at operating temp until engine starts to miss then back off but this doesn't sound right to me because that would mean fluid is not being completely burned if at all in that cylinder... cylinders even.



I have also known guys racing high boost gasoline turbo cars to use certain winshield washer fluid brands (being 50\50 water\methanol already) and disregard the misc. added detergents along with N20. Fuild injection in gasers is used to prevent detonation which really isn't a problem with our diesels from what I understand only EGT's. And some of these gasser engines I speak of only hold 4 quarts of oil and its not a problem for them.



Is there anybody running Snow water\methanol injection with Propane \ N20 or all three for that mater?

Hey Kevin,you should just sell me that drag comp so you can upgrade to the redline box
