So do you have water injection on your 2GM20F.
Maybe that should be the next mod this summerlol

That won’t work if you run over construction cones. They melt and the plastic 
hardens up in various places in the engine.
Just FYI

At the airline I work for we wash turbine  engines in basicly the same fashion. 
A turbo is a very simple version of a turbine engine.

I just read this in a Yanmar Manual:

6) Washing the Turbocharger Blower
When engine speed seems sluggish or the exhaust color
poor, the blades of the turbocharger blower may be dirty.
Wash the blower in the following manner.
1. Have ready blower wash (liquid detergent), fresh
water, and a small pitcher.
Blower Wash (4L)
Parts Code:974500-00400
2. Put the clutch in neutral and run the engine at high
speed (2500•3000rpm).
3. Slowly pour approximately 50cc of blower wash into
the turbocharger air intake over a period of about 10
seconds.
4. After about 3 minutes, pour in approximately 50cc of
fresh water in the same manner over a period of about
10 seconds.
5. After operating the engine for about 10 minutes,
check the boost pressure and power output.
If there is no improvement after washing the blower,
repeat the washing process several times.
If there is still no improvement consult your local Yanmar
dealer.

This sounds kind of crazy, spraying soapy water and then water into your intake 
–
Has anyone ever done this or know of anyone who has?
