ok what is better to inject, water or alcohol. i hear that if you put just alcohol that you can raise theboost run higher timing and such, do to the fact that you are almost running race fuel type of octane. now when you put just alcohol do you have tune the car leaner due to the fact that you are injecting alchol, which is a fuel? and i understand that with water it works a lot better in turbo applications that are not using and intercooler becuase you can drop the inlet temp a lot more. now does that mean you can run more boost but not higher timing becuase it is still not increase the threshold of knock, but it will cool your air down so that you can run higher boost with out getting hot air? in general i just want some feedback on water alcohol injection and if it requires leaning out or somehting.
thank you for the replies in advance.
