Direct Compressor Injection?

I have a new idea for where to inject. Or at least I haven't seen it done before, but maybe it has....? That's what I hope to find out.

So basically I love the benefits of pre-turbo. And I also have had great results of post turbo closer to the TB. I'm running a pre turbo and post turbo with no intercooler right now...

But I thought about placing a nozzle directly in the compressor housing spraying in the same path of the blades and air. The basic picture will give you a better idea of what I mean. This is neither pre or post turbo. This is direct injection for the compressor housing. Keeping the compressing air cool allowing more air to be compressed in the housing. Allowing the turbo to act as a larger frame turbo possibly better than pre turbo. It will also be flowing directly with the flow of moving air and the blades cutting down on the chances of cendensation building up on the turbo inlet, misaligned nozzle, and various other problems spraying a mist at a spinning wall of blades causes.

I have "theories" on why this would work great. But no real data. Plus... what the **** do I know? Lol...

There's a guy that did something similar to this and posted up his setup with results over at the aquamist site. It was interesting enough that I bookmarked it for reference, so here you go:

The thread is "Injecting prior to turbo comp' impellers", the OP is T.F.S., and it's post #421.

Good luck and hope this helps.
