Talking Re: Water Injection Installed

Ok Guys I am New Here..I own a company in Canada & we have just finished a hydrogen unit..I also own a H2 & am looking forward to testing our unit on my rig...I have just returned from flordia where i spent a few days learning how to reprogram the E.C.M ..The problem is that when we use the hydrogen
the computor thinks the rig is running lean..and dumps more fuel in .So we have to reprogram the E.C.M. to accept the hydrogen...Our first unit we did was a ford explorer was getting 12 mpg on the highway...After reprograming the ecm & adding the hydrogen we topped out at a amazing 32mpg hwy.We are takeing my rig to flordia first part of august to superchip customing tuning to run some dyno testing on the ecm & hydrogen...Keep you posted if we even get close to the results of the explorer we will have a winner

Default Re: Water Injection Installed

Read Yettis comments above. If water injection and other stuff worked to improve MPG, all the fleets would be using it. The manufacturers would boost their CAFE (look it up) ratings.

There seems to be some confusion, so here is the skinny......

The only thing water really does is cool the intake mixture, so more air/gas can get into cylinder. It also makes things burn cooler, like someone already mentioned in this thread, so you may need it with some turbos/supers for this reason. Nothing to do with gas mileage. Because of what I said above, it can actually decrease your mileage, but can (in some cases) give you more power since you are burning more gas (not less).
