Did search, no straight answer, what is water injection?

[1G/TS-ituner]

Ive done some searches and found alot of posts discussing water/alchy injecton, but couldent find any pix, or posts explaining what it is, or how it works, and how to install one.....can anyone make a sticky of "how to" or just explain the process to me with no BS involved??? im becomming very interested in this. and all the links they have posted in there posts talking about water injection are just links to the products nothing that still explains how it works and how to use it.

Any info for my ignorance will be appretiated haha

i had water injection in my turbo 510, all it does is inject a small ammount of water into your intake to help lower intake temps and keep knock/detenation under control, personaly i liked it, and when i have some cash i'll be doing it with the talon

we have installation pictures on our website so you can see pictures of it installed. Water injection is a system that has a high pressure pump, special misting nozzles or Injectors and a mechanism to activate the system when the car is under boost. High end sysems will contain a high quality solenoid to prevent the water from being drawn into the engine during vacuum.

In our case the system dectects your boost pressure and via an adjustable boost sensor it will inject the fine stream of water when you hit the boost level that you set. this water is very, very fine and will evaporate almost instantly. This latent evaporation will soak up all the heat and cool the cylinder walls and allow for perfect combustion. The end result is a car that will make more power, be able to run more boost and leaner A/F's and knock will be all but eliminated. Your engine will be steam cleaned of all carbon deposits over time. Your EGT's will lower by about 200 degrees and intake temps will be ambient.
