So has anyone pursued this yet?
It was pretty effective on SC 3800 vehicles. With this owners were able to get rid of all of their KR, and reduce SC outlet temps considerably. One problem was noted though, the guys that ran Water Injection for a while noted that when they pulled their superchargers off the rotors looked like they were polished and sand blasted. As pleasing to the eye that may seem... there is supposed to be teflon coating on the rotors. Eaton coats the rotors to protect them from heat and for longevity reasons. It seems the rotors loose their coatings because water injection is like sand blasting the rotors. Now there are plenty of people out there running without coatings on their rotors and havent suffered a supercharger failure..... in fact I ahvent heard of any failures.
some believe that the water injection has this effect because of the water sprayer nozzles.... they beleive that if it sprayed a finer mist that we wouldnt have this problem.
Anyone with a RL think about this yet? Discuss.....
