D.I.Y WATER INJECTED........to the intake manifold..........
the theory is we just apply the mist of water only........not 100% water but just a mist.......the purpose is to give extra OXIGEN to the combustion chamber for good burning......good burning need Oxigen...but y water??.....water is H2O.....so we extract that OXIGEN by applying a mist to the intake manifold through the vacum line......must use mineral water or filtered water to avoid the vacum line clogged......that is only a short xplaination.......
simple component for TESTING.......use mineral water n its bottle....
...... aquarium hose
...... aquarium air control valve 2 way
OK until now.....will continue later..if any body interested
dude, dun think water would involve in burning process in our combustion chamber la.
the reason of using H2O is not the O inside it...instead of H2O has a higher what they call "muatan haba tentu" (dunno what to call in english la hehe). higher muatan haba tentu means H2O absorb a lot of heat energy to make it higher in temperature or to heat it up
experiment : try boiling the water...see how many minutes to make it boil or to make it really hot
so, in this case, water is use to absorb heat in the intake manifold and cool it down a bit. low temperature will make the air more dense..more dense with O2 molecules. more oxygen means more power.
but most important thing is, water injection will prevent knock, so u can fully advance ur ignition or getting more higher compression piston or higher boost (for turbo cars)
