cant you also pour water into air intake to cool the plenum down aswell.. heard it can add atleast 15kw per litre

brings up a good point. was talking to an engineer, and he is mentioned to me that if you had an injector type of thing within the intake pipe, which sprayed a very fine mist of water, like really micro mm small, it would actually make the air denser. dunno though, doesnt denser air reduce power?

the more water you put in the higher the density... highter density = power gain
