With regards to pre-turbo injection, has anyone actually seen the damage caused to the impeller and directly associated it with the water injection? Is data such as water flow to cause that damage available? By this I mean seen a "good" impeller run for a while with no appreciable damage then begin to accumulate damage after installing the WI.
I am running a '60 vintage suck-through turbo setup with my injection nozzle located at the head of the system, over the carb throat, getting control input from the coil (RPM) and carb vaccuum. This application is against manufacturer recomendation, but I'm working with what I have. I am still in the process of tweaking it with regards to flow rate and trip point and would like some specifics of others experiences as guidelines. So far, I have noticed no detrimental effect and only limited benefit.
Thanks
