[s-cars] MTM Stage 1+ AND Pinging AND Hot Weather....

[Rob Pecsar]

Igor,

Do you mean spraying water on the intercooler or water injection within the intake manifold. Any suggested off-the-shelf kits for the later?

Any Audi BTDT with alcohol injection? I've heard positive cost effective results in the Chevy V8 arena.
