Water Injection Systems - 12 volt January 30, 2019 03:05PM
Is there 12 volt water injection pump or system available that can deliver high pressure to 8 nozzles?? I had a pump from Staab, worked good but needed more pressure. If so, who has it and how much??
Thank you!

Mark Colberg has a good 12v system.

Use the Staab pump if it worked for you.

Is it possible or reasonable to pressurize the water tank with turbo boost and then use an electric pump to help push the water? This approach would require a solenoid valve to prevent water injection under low boost conditions.

Thanks

Reply to RCP, In most rule books it states "NO PRESSURIZED TANKS ALLOWED" ! This might apply to the idea you had about using boost to pressurize the water tank. Guess you would have to ask your Tech Man.

Good point, of course the tank wouldn't be pressurized until the engine was running.

That’s almost 1 gallon in 15 seconds, very few high pressure pumps flow over 3gpm, what you are asking is close to 4gpm, I doubt you ever get an electric pump to keep up with that volume and maintain pressure.

I've seen some guys run 2 high pressure electric pumps before but it's a plumbing mess and takes a lot of power to run 2 pumps

Here’s a thought throw the electric away and go with a proven boost activated valve (Simpson Hyper) way more bullet proof especially if you add a pressure switch with a light

Last time I checked electric pumps can run off a boost activated switch and you can add a pressure switch with a light so I’m not sure what your trying to say. On the other hand that’s quit a bit of water for an electric to be able to handle efficiently.
