I must see things differently. Water injection doesn't cool the intake charge. The cooling only occurs once the compression stroke starts. Just before ignition, cylinder temps are above 400C°, at which point the water has absorbed heat and turned to steam. When ignition occurs, the steam continues to absorb heat and expands at a rate greater than the accompanied air. This expansion boosts the force on the piston, increasing torque and keeps peak temperatures under 1100C° at which point Nitrogen will "burn" and create NOx emissions. If the engine is over rich, particulate count (soot, or carbon) skyrockets. It's not as simple as hosing down the intake with water and reeping the benefits. The engine has to be built for the purpose. Nitrous Oxide engines are a good example. Same for Alcohol, or NitroMethane. Build the engine knowing what it will run on, and it will take full advantage of the fuel.
Yes, the power is gained from denser intake charge, cooler, and the increased timing that this will allow. Methanol and water injection is commonly used so that increased timing can then be run. If you don’t dynamically set the timing with water injection it can be really bad if you run out of water.
Id like to see an injection system where the water is injected directly into the cylinder, just slightly after ignition where most of the force caused by the expansion has been used and then the water hits all that heat and expands even more.
I poured water straight into my fuel tank and hopefully it will do the same thing, cheers 👍👍
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol😂 let us know how it went!
Lot of group b turbo rally cars used the same system to keep the engine from exploding. Audi Quattro used this I think also fuel injection from Bosch

You sound like a nice guy, the video could be longer. I subscribed
I appreciate that!
What if; you used screenwash/coolant instead?
Yeah i am just waiting winter to check if water hasn't turn into ice
It has to be washer fluid or water/methanol!🤣
Geee How novel !!
Germany developed (MW50) water methanol injection to allow High boosts in 1942 !!
What day of the week is it for you.. Mate ??
That's cool. Buuuut, now u need buy gas and desmiralizated water... Kkk
I use dehumidifier water. Or even distilled water is less than a dollar per gallon.
water in the engine 😂 , come on
