The folks in the climate you speak of are the most vocal about the issue. Also, just normal long hauls across the interstate at steady speed and not getting into boost throughout that is another culprit. This system ideally should have a condensate pump on it like your home AC unit. We don't have that luxury, so the weep hole is the solution.**** injection - yes, works GREAT on the ecoboost. Probably the best performance item to get. With that said, the **** system actually injects a metered mist. That is just fine and no issues. The condensate buildup in the intercooler is a different story. You stab the throttle and it will force that entire volume of water through. That is where you blow out spark and potentially hydrolock the engine. With the weep hole, water is forced to environment pre-spark.---------- Post added at 12:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 AM ----------Quick point - this side of the intercooler is not under vacuum. It is actually pressure, so no water/junk gets in.</blockquote>
