no, i would always opt for the more humid place to get better dyno numbers.

turbo xs had a problem with people complaining about their numbers, so they changed the humidity levels to be much higher than actual humidity and people stopped complaining.

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHA

too much water, like completly submerged, will net a loss of power, but vapor like that to make up higher humidity numbers will net a gain of power. its simple chemistry. honestly.

The oxygen in the water is bound, and unusable. This is why you can't breathe underwater. banghead.gif If our engines could cause a nuclear reaction to detach the oxygen molecules from the hydrogen, then damn!

[QUOTE=gary_phd]geez, where do you guys get all your information? Water and alchy injection lowers

Am I the only one who hates this kayvan_pour kid? Every post he makes actually makes me angry.
He's the most argumentative person on here, and he's just a jackass.
