You mean that water injection stuff? I have read about it a little. Seems dangerous to the engine if your system is unreliable. But I have not seen much in the way of posts on this site.

Thanks for this pgfpro. I'll read some more and pm you if I have questions now or later. Thanks. -james

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
