***Race Car Only, not a street car***
So my LSR motor is coming out of storage and I'll start messing with it again sometime soon. Since I've had time to think but not do anything an idea struck me. Can I spray fuel pre-turbo and get away with no intercooler? This would significantly simplify my build as I'd not have to worry about plumbing an Air-to-Water, mounting it, and associated hang ups. Idea would be to have part of my mechanical injectors spraying pre-turbo then have 6 port mechanical injectors, 1 in each runner. The injectors are not large so I have 10 of them in total.
Based on readings, the carbon seals on turbos are needed for those that are between the throttle blades and the engine due to the vacuum pulled on the bearings. Since the turbo will still be upstream of the throttle in this case, I don't think I'd need any special turbo.
Thoughts and Thanks
