Interesting blurb on Speedvision

[Adam Chant]

I'm deffinatly not a proponent of the water injection concept because it leaves
too much to the stupid factor. I.E. My x-wife, "I thought the light would blink
if it REALLY needed oil."
If the Airforce can lose an expensive aircraft like the Harrier from lack of
water in the injection system, then it's a given that the average shmo will
forget to keep the system full and melt down an engine. 
I digress...

As I see it; The humidity does have a much higher HOH content and not only helps
to slow the combustion process, but it also
lowers the internal temperatures. For FI applications if you have enough HOH
before the charger it can also assist in sealing and produce a better boost
as is the case in water injection.

I know of a few people that ran water injection before the JRSC's (rice roots)
and made some great power over boosting the M45 Eaton blower. All was fine until
the tap water began to eat the coating off the rotors and the S/C boost levels
fell off until it stopped working all together. 
That's how I see it and I might be wrong, but someone will learn me.
