Source for high pressure (100-150+psi) water pump...

..to use with my home-made water injection system. Yes, injection.
Currently, I will be using a spare c900 windshiled washer fluid pump to mist the intercooler, with George's Imports/Aquamist atomizer nozzle. Other parts of the system include Aquamist check valve, and Hobbs 4psi pressure switch to activate the system. Right now, it will only work as a mister.
The only thing holding me back from converting to "mister" to "injection" is the pressure of the pump, following Brad's advice. The stock windshield washer pump produces 45psi max, and to completely atomize the water throughout the system, I need anywhere from 100-150psi.
Someone told me to try a fuel pump. But doesn't water destroy the internals of fuel related parts, especially a pump?
Looking for anything that might work. I'm looking at fish tank pumps, fuel pumps, etc, etc. Anything that will work, and costs under $100.
Any help appreciated!
