Abner, that's fantastic!! Thank you!! I believe Richard wants an outer diameter of the turbo inlet. I guess an inner diameter measurement wouldn't hurt either. Also Richard how will the nozzle holder firmly attach to the turbo?

Just a warning guys..

If you spray water injection before the turbo, it will damage the turbo blades.. At 50,000 rpm's +, the little water droplets are like mini-cannon *****.

I just tried to find the article, where a guy did this, & he had pictures of the turbo impellers after a few weeks, & they were chewed!

I'm at work so I'll find a link for some pictures when I get home. The amount/rate that needs to be injected, still needs to be determined. As soon as I get the adapter/holder, I'll try experimenting. There is a link somwhere that NASA has actually tried it already with success on I believe jet turbines.
