On the Whipple surpercharger your idea of doing both is good. The Whipple seems to heat the air more that most units of its type. When using water on that type of supercharger the most common problem to cure is the transition from closed to open throttle. While cruisning the temperature of the supercharger seems to raise quit a bit and when the throttle is first opened the first air is super heated.
Using a system that has pressure in the line ready to use is the first step.
A fixed rate jet that comes on at 1psi or less at the charger inlet will help remove that built up heat. A jet system after the supercharger delivering water at a proportional rate would be correct.
The constant flow jet will most likely be a 0.5 to 0.8. The one connected to the high speed valve may be a 1.0 or two 0.8.
Does any one know the turbo discharge temperature?
I would assume we are looking a 350hp+. This will take a good amount of water at full throttle.
