Talking Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7

In preliminary tests of the latest 2012 WI system specification, starting off on lowest boost setting of 1.45bar Intake Air Temperature is around ~35 deg C (~18 deg C ambient test) in 3rd and 4th gear. Exhaust Gas Temperature is around 790 deg C to 800 deg C (around ~70 Deg C drop to previous settings on same boost pressure.

These are noticeable improvements over the last WI settings

Only possible on full CDI ignition system (don't attempt/try this with any inductive crap box system!). Also running a different specification spark plug of higher heat tolerance, to date its working fine in repeated cold start tests and short engine run tests (real world driving) not fouling at all, and burning any ratio you throw at it.

Doing full recalibration to suit the new set up and will test all aspects and post back as time allows
