Any body put the water/meth injection on the OBS trucks ,I still have stock turbo an injectors, pulling trailer EGT's getting up there was wondering the pro's an con's about these systems. thanks

They work great to control egt's but arent really practicle for pulling a trailer as you can use a lot of water. It would be beter just to put an intercooler on it.

water works well, but an ic would be a better first mod. I plan on adding a 20gal water tank so i can acutally use my water inj for towing. Right now 2 qt of water lasts about 1/2mile, so its not very practical.

wow that is alot of water ,I wouldn't have thought that it uses that much, what temp do they start kicking in at? which one is the best brand going?

YOu can put smaller water nozzles in, i have the largest two that snow makes. I bought the kit with racing in mind, if it lasts a 1/4 mile thats all i need lol. With stock or small injectors i dont think you'd want to run that much water, it would probably put the fire out so to speak. I have it set to come on at 15 psi of boost and full on somewhere around 30 psi. I run a snow kit and like it, I hear Cooling mist also makes a nice kit.
