don't really think an intercooler is necessary, I mean you can only cool the air so much...

I'm really lookign forward to seeing pics and an install guide like you said. It would be a good item to put in the projects page :)

I used to think about water injection until I read "maximum boost" it really talks down on it in there. Whatever helps though I'm there :) so get us some pictures and some instructions!

Oh ya! I'm gonna run direct port water injection! lol 50 shot forsuraaaa


Hey whatever works right? Steve in our turbo projects was running 10psi on water injecton and no intercooler on a DX..

I would consider it, but I have never even touched that ---- before :-X Plus my intake hardly even gets hot at all.

bottled water for my car it is :)
Its raining today or I'd have gotten pics :(
I think an intercooler + water injection would be a good way to reduce temps back to ambient... but the water injection does more then the cooling the methyl alcohol creates a better burn in the engine and cleans off the cylinders/piston surfaces...

Pleas eforgive me for not having the pics up yet...
