Could always divert a small amount of exhaust to the H20 intake, I suppose; but I'm not yet convinced it's necessary or desirable. Gotta go down to the local shop and pick the techs' brains on this one.
When the guys built the VASH, they cut off the tail, so the hydro-dynamics
would create a vacuum-effect to help suck the exhaust out.
