Default Re: Injecting prior to turbo comp' impellers

Another change to the pre compressor injection point and I have a feeling it may not be the last, the nozzle has been brought forward just over 1.5 inches..it is now within 5mm of the compressor nut, maybe this is too close for comfort?













Another change to the pre compressor injection point after noticing the wear on the compressor in the previous post and I have a feeling it may not be the last, the nozzle has been brought forward just over 1.5 inches..it is now within 5mm of the compressor nut, maybe this is too close for comfort?











It's not easy to strike a good medium with the injector placement...I think the previous nozzle position may have allowed the WM mix to hit the sides of the turbo inlet and pool into larger droplets which have damaged the blades as they have impacted, I dont know what is the best distance from the compressor but after rigging a very basic test I believe it to be 8-12mm away from the compressor thread/nut


Well I have a 3071 core sitting around due to a rough bearing, it's not easy to hold the injector and work out an exact distance for the best placement so I took a video to watch back afterwards.
Now as crap as this vid is it would seem that the best placement would be 8-12mm away from the compressor nut would you agree?
