Oh, it definately works.
I saw that on the dyno as well, there is no question about that.
The devil is in the detail though, I want to know *how much* and *when* so I can optimise the setup for maximum gains with minimal water usage.

Testing on the sam epiece of road is pretty consist than most people would give credit for. You have spare yourself a great deal of dyno time and cost.

The weather helps lately, if it is wet it will not be consistent enough (and bloody dangerous on a public road!)
The dyno gives you a nice curve with AFR info as well, no wheelspin, it's very good.
The road datalogging is good for testing more roughly, to see if you're moving in the right direction.

I am not sure if it will help if I lend you a flowmeter, all you need is a DVM to get the flowrate reading, evey little thing helps. PM me your address.

Flow meter is one, the other is trimming WI according to the fuel injection pulse. At the moment it's not a huge problem because my WI is between 4K and 6.5K so the 'dynamic range' isn't that wide. My water/fuel ratio ranges from 10% to 15% or so (with my basic aquamist system)
I'll send you a PM when I've decided on what sort of setup I'll go for in the near future. Maybe using 2x0.3mm nozzles perhaps...
