I'm looking to set up a WI system on either a non-turbo or turbocharged car, or possibly both. I'm not set on water, but I think I would like to run at least a 50/50 water/meth mix. I also might experiment with some nitromethane, but for now my question concerns water.
I am in Guam. Guam has quite a lot of humidity, probably an average of about 80%. I am concerned by this fact, and am afraid that even a small amount of water will saturate the air. The problem is, it is also rather hot here so I would like to take advantage of WI for detonation purposes.
I am thinking possibly a straight methanol system might be in order. Also, I am highly interested in pursuing testing of a pre-turbo system. I would be removing the intercooler in this instance and making the piping as short as possible. I am a little weary of injecting straight meth into the compresssor, or is this just unfounded? I have no experience with methanol whatsoever, so tell me if I'm just being unnecessarily anxious.
Thanks for all the help, there's a wealth of info here but I could not successfully find any information regarding high humidity climates.
