That's fascinating. I'm in the process of adapting the XKR system to a Rover V8 conversion, and I've been wondering about putting some of the fuel upstream of the blower in part load conditions. My reasoning is that a small amount of evaporative cooling over a long period could do a lot to combat heat soak. I don't know how effective it would actually be, but if the phenomena of carb icing is anything to go by it might lower the temperature of the whole induction system significantly. If it worked, this ought to give the supercharger a lot more punch when it comes on boost. So far it's only a theory, do you know of anyone who has tried it?
