I always wondered what is this thing, and how it works... I wanted to ask this question few time before, but aint find the right time...

Someone, please explain me how does this work, and how does it helps.

Thanks >>


This time i feel like a n00b >>

Sprays water into your throttle body (or before depending on where you put it, i think TB is the best) and it drastically reduces intake temperatures. Its a mist so the engine wont bog down or ne thing plus it helps clean the cylinders themselves. You can also use alcohol which burns or nitrous.

WI injection systems usually come with a boost sensor or tap off a sensor and automatically are engaged at a certain boost or RPM. WI helps prevent detonation and is very effective.

i feel stupid now >> cuz i asked stupid question before asking google......

thanks guys >> Gonna use this on my project.

good choice, but its not cheap.

H20 injection. great site. i was contemplating it also. i learned alot here.

They also did a water cooling set up on the 240 SX SCC drift car. They ran a line from the windshield washer fluid to a sprayer over the intercooler (or radiator, I forget) which worked pretty well if I remember right.

Yeah I have that done, but its not nearly as effective but does help.

So how much would it cost to refill the bottle? Isn't water free? or do you have to get some kind so "special" water?

A N/A setup only cost around $300 (correct me if i'm wrong) and isn't water free?

You can spray just water, water/alcohol mix. The water becomes a mist before it makes it to the chamber. The added o2 in the air obsorbs the heat and lowers the engine temps. It also works as a detonation retardent. If your running boost, advanced timming or have a high revving motor water injection is a good thing to have. I think you need distiled water to keep the impurities out.

Someone please correct me if Im wrong.
