Unleashing the Beast: George's Nissan GU Patrol with Aquamist Water Injection

At Cool Runnings Engineering, we're always excited to share success stories from our valued customers. Today, we'd like to introduce you to George, the proud owner of a Nissan GU Patrol that's been transformed into a true powerhouse. George's vehicle boasts a Ford Barra engine, which has been meticulously tuned and equipped with Aquamist water injection for that extra punch of power.

Meet George's Nissan GU Patrol

George's Nissan GU Patrol is not your average 4x4. Under the hood, it houses a Ford Barra engine that has received some serious upgrades. The engine has been fortified with forged pistons and connecting rods, and it's now paired with a large aftermarket turbocharger. This combination promises to deliver exceptional performance, and it does so with style.

The Power of Custom Tuning

When it comes to maximizing the potential of a high-performance engine like the Ford Barra, tuning is key. George entrusted his vehicle to Stahti and the expert team at Independent Motorsport, known for their pioneering work in seamlessly integrating Aquamist systems onto Barra engines.

The results of their efforts are nothing short of astonishing. Before the addition of the Aquamist water injection system, George's Nissan GU Patrol was pushing out an impressive 366kW (490hp) at 16psi of boost, running on pump 98 fuel. But George and the Independent Motorsport team had bigger plans.

Aquamist Water Injection: Unleashing More Power

With the Aquamist water injection system's direct port injection capability in play, George's SUV underwent a remarkable transformation. The tuned engine now produces a jaw-dropping 502kW (672hp) at 24psi of boost. The difference is undeniable, and it showcases the incredible versatility and capability of the Aquamist system.
