I shot this for a Forced Induction topic:

that was ******* awesome

First time I let the dump valve loose, it recoiled into my sunglasses. Second time, I stood up farther, and it knocked me backwards.

Yesterday, I pressurized the tank with residual water in it, then dumped it for the girls with a rag over the outlet (we were inside). It FROZE the rag.

driverjohn played with this in his driveway about a year and a half ago. I have a nighttime pic of a 2" diameter column of water heading toward'* Gramps' house.

There'* alot of energy in this thing.

Good progress being made here. Almost ready to fire the Zilla with the new TB. I still need to flush out the rest of the sytem, as it hasn't been used in a year or more. I'm going to run a full tank of water with a little bit of bleach in it through the entire system except the nozzle, then change the filter and relocate the tank to the trunk.

I still have to put the Zilla'* TB onto the SLEeper. And check Kim'* rear brakes and speedo. Both are having issues on the cute little Neon.

Fun relaxing day of tinkering. No pressure now that I have at least ONE car ready to run again.

Stupid question...what does water injection do?

Awsome video though

Is that just enough water injection to make it down the track? methanol mixture? Very nice setup and glad to see you have an "able assistant.".ya need a longer dump tube... ya know, something ya can stuff a potato in

Vig, think of water injection (in simple terms) as a poor-man'* intercooler. Or the only intercooler if you're a Series 1.

John, I did some testing on the tank. It'* enough for several track runs. It delivers a great spray pattern from 65 psi all the way down to about 25-30. It takes a full minute for me to run it from 65psi to 40psi, and I only use it for about 10 seconds each run (my intent anyway). I'll turn it on AFTER the launch, only at WOT. The tank holds about 2 gallons, but I typically only put in one gallon at at time.

Testing with 30% Methanol mix this morning went very well.
