In this episode of The Deep Dive, we peel back the layers of water injection technology and tackle the myths and mechanics behind its use in modern engines.
💧 Is it true that injecting water into your car’s engine can boost performance? Or is it just another overhyped gimmick?
Our expert roundtable dissects the science, exploring credible research and real-world testing to get to the heart of the matter. Drawing from nine authoritative sources—from tech pioneers like BAR-TEK to government bodies like the U.S. Department of Energy—we examine how water-methanol systems can reduce engine temperatures, increase power output, and even improve fuel economy under certain conditions.
But not all claims hold water. We address the widespread myth of "water-powered cars," breaking down why hydrogen electrolyser modifications don’t defy physics.
🔧 AEM Electronics’ technical manual adds a practical edge, guiding listeners through safe and efficient installation of water/methanol kits—while highlighting the crucial safety measures around methanol’s toxicity and flammability.
Whether you're a gearhead, a skeptic, or someone curious about cleaner performance solutions, this episode separates engineering fact from automotive fiction.
Buckle up—things are about to get turbocharged.
