supercharged 5.0 true fire 98 explorer sport

Im thinking if you added multiple nozzles and sprayed the **** out of it you could bring wot temps down. But, your part throttle iats will still be super high with all that recirculating boosted air.

You have an issue, and none of us can help. The more i learn, the more i dont see a way out.

Turbo creates its own special issues...i do t see that getting you where you expect to be either.

Your on the ragged edge.
i wished i kept some of my old logs with the m112 to see what the temps where. then again the sensor was in a different spot, so was the nozzle and no idea what hp rating it was.
when i move the nozzle this time it was basically beside the iat sensor at the back. i figured this wouldnt work because the water was going against air flow and pushing back on itself. now its at the front below the exhaust outlet of the blower. to me that is flowing the correct direction of the air, and towards the iat sensor. when i hit it, the temp climbs. nothing else, not even a momentary pause in change just climbs. i also noticed from day one if i drive it normally then stop for a few mins (turn the motor off) then restart it, the temps climb a few degrees and pretty much stay there and also wont down with regular driving acting like its heat soaked.
 






With regular driving, that solenoid should be open. This recirculates the boosted (heated) air. This is why we see high iats when drivin around out of boost. This is also why an intercooler is so helpful.

Without a intercooler, and with water/meth we should see lower iat's in boost over 1/2 throttle (this assumes the iat sensor is in the path of the water/meth). If the above is true, are you sure the nozzle is sprayi g over 1/2 throttle?
Adding more water/meth wont hurt as long as its not drowning the motor (tuning might be required to pull gas).

Im feeling your pain, this is a huge issue.
