Tory, Id love to see pics of your setup if you can. As for the malfunctioning valve, which valve is it thats not opening? Is it by any chance the solenoid...

Thanks all for your assistance. I was thrown for a loop when I gave pin 1 GND or 12v and it would push that current to Pin 2, making me think that pin2 was a...

Still a question to me, does methanol wear out the pump? If you go to www.derekdevies.com, he sells a alky/meth system which uses shurflo pump just like most...

I've had a Aquamist 1S system on my 1G AWD for two years now. As far as I can tell, it does nothing. I don't mean at WOT, I mean at any time. I have it hooked...
You do realize at idle the throttle plate is closed and very little water will go through the idle ports. Probably in the form of droplets now dripping into...
Ian - Sounds like you are not squirting enough water. What size is your nozzle? Have you verified your pressure in the system with a gauge? Have you also...
Yep. But I can see most of the water going in the intake. If it doesn't drip out the intake pipe, it has to make it into the combustion chamber at some point. ...
It's either the .8 or .9 Aquamist nozzle. I haven't directly measured flow, but it empties my 1L tank about every gas tank, and I don't stand on it all that...
The way I thought and read WI was supposed to work was not as a "nitrous" type boost to performance, but mostly to allow you to run higher boost and/or advance...
Rob, You're correct. WI is for knock reduction, not directly adding power. The issue I have is that I get exactly the same knock at 17 PSI with and without my...
I would try what the other people suggest, maybe a larger nozzle? You might not be getting enough water mist in there. If you're not running 91+ octane you...
Does anyone even make a nozzle larger than .9mm? Before I even got WI I remember people saying that they were running 450 HP and only using about .8mm because...
Does anyone have a solution to the problem of maintaining a constant water/fuel ratio as rpm rises? I'm still putting together a WI system, but I'm reaching...
OK for your reference I run a 0.9mm and 100PSI shurflo pump, I turn it on 5 PSI on my 20G. I never stumble. even at very light throttle and I keep it at 5...
