Water injection aka circa 1975-1980 tech alchol/ water mix and then in vapor form is in fact what I am curious about. This was used in the decade pasts with some results and that is why you can by ebay kits in the 400-500 us dollar range with pump/tank/mister etc.
I am just curious how you tube connect on a 2004 toyota ......the old way was via egr tubes, evap lines with a tee..............
Don't be confused... I was just pointing out that I'm researching both HHO and cold fog.
I tried the old coarse water sprayer systems, back in the late 80's - early 90's as way to keep Turbo-charged and Super-charged engines from detonating. The rule there was only spray after the compressor section as droplets hitting the turbine blades would damage them.
That's part of what has me looking into the cold fog program as it would not have the issues of condensation, pooling and large droplets that the older systems have.
On a 2004 toyota, I'd look for a spot after the mass air flow sensor and before the throttle. I'd probably stick the nozzle into the center of the air hose, and aim it at the throttle body. Try to go for the finest mist you can get to prevent large droplets forming and puddling in the twists and turns of the intake.
