Poor Mans Water/meth???

soooooo i have this idea, and ya'll are probably going to laugh and ridicule me, but im just being curious, so my idea is to use my washer fluid tank and pump and run a line into the intake tubing thats between the turbo and air filter and spray it in their, that way the turbo will turn the washerfluid into a mist and force it into the engine, so what do you guys think, would this ruin my turbo? does it sound plausable? why and why not, im not looking for any huge gains in hp if any, just thought it might help cool egts if they get to hot. thanks, and yes im a redneck.

I believe the water droplets will hurt the turbo because of the extreme speed... I think this has been discussed before

nozzle on injection

i'm not sure bout running a hose straight to the intake tube, sounds scary. I know the guys running pulling tractors use the same setup only the put nozzles on the tube or hose before the turbo. Not 4 sure on the type of nozzle, something similar to a nitrous nozzle, something that atomizes the spray really well.

Heck, I just sent a PM to a member here showing him how to build a w/m system with parts from Northern Tool and Mcmaster-Carr.

Cost was <$200.

That wasnt the one i have seen...but interesting...im guessing they are using boost pressure to shoot the water out a nozzle that is at the turbo inlet.....very simple. I still havent found the one i was thinking of......
