hey guys just bored and had a thought. more and more people have started to run a water or alcohol injection system in our forums and it has become pretty famous for dropping inlet temps and raising octane. the idea i had was very simple, but it takes some info. now if i was to run the 14b without an intercooler, what do you guys think is the most you could run in psi? the idea i had was to eliminate the stock or aftermarket intercooler for a 3-4 nozzle water or alcohol injection kit. you basically put the bov right at the outlet of the turbo and the mas in draw in position(on the intake) and recirculate. but all you run after the bov is a 2.5" tube from your turbo to your throttle body. now you have the nozzles placed about 6-8" apart on the tube so that you can get the air to cool down a lot. now all you would need to know is how much boost you can run without the intercooler, then you can have these turn on at that point. this way you have a setup close tot he air to water intercoolers, but without the restriction and added lag of an intercooler, thus running an even bigger turbo with less lag, or a small one with almost no lag. this is just an idea, please be open minded because i have a fmic, and i love it, but if somebody did not experiment, then we would not have had that today.
