Re: Gas Saver - Is this true?
The water injection acts like an intercooler, it cools the air fuel charge. More power can be made by increasing boost (density of air) and increasing the amount of fuel.
Also, if you inject the water BEFORE the supercharger, the supercharger will increase efficiency as you will have less leakage between the high pressure and low pressure side of the supercharger. |

Re: Gas Saver - Is this true?
Here is one a guy here in Tulsa is promoting. Supposedly a 50% to 75% increase in fuel economy. Guys here are paying $500.00 each to be trained and "certified" to install them. Supposedly a money back deal if you don't see a 50% increase.
http://www.powersaveofamerica.com/ I probably won't jump up and buy one.

Re: Gas Saver - Is this true?
I know this is going to date me, the Olds F-85 with a turbo (1963?) came with an injection system and had a bracket for the bottle of what I think was alochol and water mixture to add to the system like the bottles that they had for windshield washers. I know some people hurt their engines because they didn't keep the system filled. Can you imagine an owner doing that now?
