NEI will tell you but I think it's something like chip in top left, screwdriver in middle right. If that's right I've been making too many cooper wires to known that off the top of my head!

No, HP steam turbines are for utilizing superheated steam produced from hot coolant in a liquid heat exchanger. Hot coolant is obtained from ic2 pressure vessel nuclear reactors.
I'm aware you have to use superheated steam. Sorry if I wasn't clear - I've read the wiki. What I want to verify is that, for instance, a large HSS-E turbine rotor will consume 30,000 mb of superheated steam/sec and produce 2100 eu/t in a HP turbine, in contrast to the 30,000 mb of normal steam and 1050 eu/t in a normal turbine. The HP steam numbers are omitted from several tables on the wiki.
Not sure if you're aware: the HP steam turbine also produces, in addition to that power, more (non superheated) steam. So the optimal steam may be the same (I forget offhand), but you "double dip" the steam to get more power.
I had no idea! I had assumed it was distilled water. Do you know what the ratio is?
SHS:Steam is 1:1. And now that I've had a chance to sleep, I can add that superheated steam does have a higher optimal throughput than regular steam.
If you reached the Tech for it, go for a Pyrolyse Oven.
In theory perhaps, but not in actuality.
Naq generation (and pretty much every other generation in other dimensions than Overworld) is currently slightly bugged. If you really need to find Naq veins you can grab the worldgen config file from github (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JasonMcRay/InfiTech-1.7/master/config/GregTech/WorldGeneration.cfg) and replace the old one, or use Fusion reactor to manufacture.
I've done the maths before, the RC large boiler, at it's most efficient (36LP) assuming I'm remembering correctly it's about 10% more efficient than a large bronze boiler from GT, all other GT steam boilers are more efficient than that though, and also more efficient than the RC one.
Technically speaking it's just really difficult to automate, due to actually being about in world placing and breaking of blocks, but it is perfectly possible to automatically place and break blocks.
