Talking Water injection

Will this allow hotter tuning to the 4G63 and maintain safety? Has anyone tried it on our cars yet? Shiv, what's your take on this?

I would like to try it if only to keep EGT's down, but if you tune with WI, you can tune it "hotter".

Methanol injection would be very nice. ::hint, hint::

LOL at the hinting. There are no secrets in this place, it seems.

Now that I have a 6 week rest between my tuning trips, I'm hard at work on the "secret" kit that some have alluded to

Where is the water injected? I saw the kits for this application to the Miatas a few years ago. seems like the price was fairly steep due to the pump and nozzle design and construction.
I wonder if it would get sprayed just before the throttle body or into the intake manifold?

What temps are you observing in your EGT gauge?

Shiv I think this sounds great! Also with the stage 2 folks it will help a lot because I think there power is limited to pump gas and have to have race gas to get the max outa them.
