In case the OP or someone else doesn't understand what we mean, water injected is SINGLE wall and is illegal (not CG approved) for use in a enclosed engine compt. These are jet boat headers, the water is mixed directly into the exhaust stream right near the exh port as a mist and cools them just enough to keep them from glowing cherry red, I personally know a fellow osoe'r who went as far as to buy a set of these thinking they would work on his baja he was selling but I won't mention RANDY'S screen name. He sent them back no problem but their ad IS very confusing as it mentions offshore boats specifically, Smitty
