Here again, I will make my opinion, but in no way should you stop the thought process. This is a wonderful collaberation.

I am fairly certain that the turbo compressor is designed around the concept of "specified inlet" flow. (if someone can say I am wrong then the following is meaningless)

A notch at the turbo inlet could be turbo suicide, if it induces stall. If it does, you will know right away, water or no water. On the other hand, maybe you stumbled onto a very rich patentable idea, like the golfball dimples.

Edited: for clarity
