Offcourse as you say depending on the knock tolerance of the fuel the spark efficiency will generally get lower the higher the chamber chrarge and charge temp.

I will post here how it turns out.

At work we ran 1 cyl DI development engine with a pre chamber, 10:1 CR, port water inj at 7000 rpm 32 bar bmep with lambda 1 and optimal spark (50% burn around 8 deg atdc). water rate 50 to 55% of fuel mass. this is could be considered state of the art but if the water stops piston is gone before you can count to 10.

I assume on this evo you could run similar water rate but perhaps are still a bit more knock limited. the burn duration of the pre chamber combustion process is very short, giving the mixture less time to knock. Do you have cylinder pressure indication system? I would be interested what kind of spark efficiency can be reached on a port fueled engine running these loads and pump fuel.
180/2.616 = ~69bhp/lt/bar
NA engines always runs worse map/tip which effects the power output in a negative manner, and without knowing what level of street port as well means that your figure could be in the mean average of what to expect?

Maybe easier to email me mate?
