Water Injection

Seems after talking about what I've done with this some of you still wonder how good it will work, well I have some new data for the lower H.P guys.

Truck in question, 97' 5 Speed Dually with 185K on the clock, specs...#10 equivalent plate, 3K's from Piers, Stock DV's, Stock Injectors...STOCK turbo with a 16 housing from Piers, 4 inch Exhaust, Timing bump and Snow Performance Stage 2 Water Injection, and a Southbend Clutch. At the start some 2 months ago the truck was at 170/351 and was set as a baseline, with the above mods and my tuning, power is at 375/901, EGT's on the dyno were 1600 and boost was 35 on the road EGT's were real high(should have seen it with the 12 housing ) now for the water on, EGT's on the road were 1450-1475 at 110 MPH, on the dyno they were 1400 boost at 40 psi....now the power, Matt Snows kit made 70 hp and 110 ft/lbs using a 50/50 mix of Water/Methanol that pushed the power to 446/1008. Thanks to Matt for the system and Chuck at Alternative Motor Sports in OKC for both the truck and the dyno to test and tune at
