Don't hear much about them. Innovative invention or waste of money?

On a normal factory engine they are a waste. However, if you beef up your engine, increase the compression ratioe etc. etc. water water injection does is cool the combustion chamber, helping to prevent detonation. Also, since you are introducing a bit of water, and it is turned into steam by the heat of combustion, it actually increases the compresion slightly due to the expansion of the steam. BUT... as I said, on a normal engine with no modifications, it is a waste of money.

and this is just because hardly anybody likes to put a ton of money into an Alero's engine.

if you are spending over $5k on your engine, it might be worth it to add that in. Other than that, no need to really consider it at all.

any boosted application could benefit greatly from a good well-tuned w/a injection setup.....greg here in colorado runs water/meth injection? works fairly well
