i just sent cash for a gauge from you, and i was wondering is there a setting i can use to monitor my water injection?
Your IAT (intake air temp) should start going lower when the WI is turned on, especially if you have some alcohol in the mix. Since the WI is not a stock system on the SRT4, there is nothing in the PCM that would monitor whether the system is on or off. Maybe someone else who uses a system like this has another suggestion.
The problem is that you can have issues with your system and still show pressure on the gauge, such as clogged nozzles.
I'm a huge fan of my Aquamist DDS3 gauge. It monitors flow, is adjustable, with both over- and under-flow safety settings, as well as other safety measures and the ability to trigger other devices based on whether or not your water injection is flowing.
When I worked in the Aerospace industry we used flow meters all the time, problem is the expense. These are not simple devices either, and would be difficult to implement in a car. It's been a while since I checked into these, maybe something simpler/cheaper is out there now.
