Hey CR,
Yes you are correct most likely what you will see in the Tigon is a Water/Methanol injection system that helps support a turbocharger system! As much as I like the sounds of CNG injection, Methanol injection is more realistic and offers in my opinion more advantages with few downsides. Not to mention it is much cheaper and can be a DIY based project where CNG is much more expensive to set up as well as difficult for the DIY guy like me. CNG tanks also take up a lot of cargo space and being that Tigon is a small car I just can not see how I would fit a tank big enough to make a real appreciable difference over a methanol set up! I have been thinking about this a lot actually as I see this as a great way to help boost as well as protect the diesel engine over its lifetime. When working with a tiny diesel as I am every little bit of extra horsepower I can safely squeeze out of it will make a difference. I have yet to decide on what kind of turbo charger system I want to go with. There are some interesting candidates but nothing that so far takes the flag above all the rest.
