Snow Performance Water Injection System (WAES)

Snow Performance is a leading manufacturer of water-methanol injection systems (boost coolers) specifically designed for turbocharged and supercharged engines. The system injects a mixture of water and methanol into the intake manifold, reducing the charge air temperature by up to 60°C and lowering the combustion temperature. This significantly reduces the engine's thermal stress, prevents engine knock, and increases power by 10-20%. Water-methanol injection raises the octane rating by up to 25 points, achieving the efficiency of 116-octane racing fuel without the need for expensive premium fuel. Snow Performance is a technology leader in this field, offering a wide range of specific systems for various engine requirements. Their quality has been proven through numerous motorsport successes, including several NHRA dragster world records and land speed records. The systems are compatible with NOS, LPG, and bioethanol (E85) applications and are successfully used in both motorsport and road applications.

Was bewirkt die Wasser-Methanol-Einspritzung von Snow Performance?

The Boost Cooler is a water-methanol injection system from Snow Performance for turbocharged and supercharged engines. The system injects a mixture of water and methanol into the intake air under high pressure through special hyper-sonic nozzles, reducing the temperature by up to 60°C.

Evaporative cooling increases air density, providing the engine with more oxygen and resulting in performance gains of 10-25%. The system raises the octane rating by up to 25 points and simultaneously actively cools the combustion chamber, thus reducing thermal stress on the pistons, valves, and turbocharger. Activation is achieved via an adjustable boost pressure switch with a reaction time of only 1.5 milliseconds.
