Is the Aquamist water injection idea based on scientific facts?
Yes, we will try to explain the whole concept right from the beginning, starting with the basic engine dynamics. Please bear with us for the next few paragraphs before we get to the point. Lets for example look at the properties of a naturally aspirated 2-litre engine when it is turbo or supercharged, we shall see how the airflow characteristics change and how it is eventually translated into horsepower and the reasons for water injection. We first look at the intake cycle of a four-stroke engine, all results are calculated.
