A fluid injection system for a turbocharged internal combustion engine such as a spark-ignition engine in which an injection nozzle injects a finely divided spray of fluid, such as water or a water solution, into the engine in response to a flow of atomizing air. The nozzle is connected to a fluid supply reservoir and to the outlet line of a compressor which receives the air/fuel mixture from the carburetor and supplies the mixture to the nozzle to induce the flow of fluid through the nozzle. The compressor is driven by the flow of exhaust gases from the exhaust manifold so that the flow of atomizing air to the nozzle, and therefore the rate of fluid injection, is varied in response to variations in engine load.
