thats usually what an air to water is going to cost because you have a heat exchanger, pump,tank,and all the lines to do it.

check out PWR, they have a "barrel" model, that would go about mid way up an intake pipe, all you do is cut that section out and replace it with the PWR part, and they are an air to water type.

jacksons is just a water injector i think

John at LHT makes the best JR Intercooler hands down. The JR water injection is a fuckin joke!

Also the PWR is in the intake tube, which means the air still has to go through the throttle body, the 200 degree+ SC an into the intake manifold before it hits the valves and the cylinder of the motor. So as it passes through these places it is creating and capturing heat, mostly in the manifold and SC where the air is being forced into a sharp turn to make it into the intake runners. everytime the air bends (Friction) it creats heat.

Thus, John at LHT has taken the JRSC intake manifold and made it an intercooler, cooling the air in the plinum (sp?) and cooling it right before the intake runners. John utilizes 2 swiss cores with heat sinks (3 every mm or 75 heat sinks per inch) which is extremely dense and captures ALOT of the heat from the air running IAT's (Intake Air Tempuratures) about 80-100 degrees cooler that no intercooler at all. Cooler air means less likely to detonate and blow the motor.

Also, last time I checked water wasnt combustable.

I'd suggest John's intercooler to anyone. Call John at LHT 727-344-1800, tell him I (Kris Chavez) sent you and he'll hook you up.

BTW, the intercooler conversion on the intake is $1000, and the rest of the parts (heat exchanger, lines, bilge pump) are either $350 or $400.

But I think I gave my opinion and I do run John's intercooler, so, good luck!

Kris

Methanol IS combustable!!! Great idea!
