Default Re: Injecting prior to turbo comp' impellers

The turbo was new a few months ago so no prior damage...I have another picture to add to an earlier post so you can see the damage progress.

I have wondered what is happening to the spray pattern on boost...does it try to narrow the beam so it hits the nut or does it direct it to the beginnings of the blades?...looking at impact tests on jet turbines it would *seem that it is directed towards the beginning of the blades, with this in mind a shorter distance may be better.

We can only try to find out, I'll take a pic of the compressor every month and update, lets get some hard data on this.
