from everything i have read in the audi world where basically everyone stage 3 and above has meth, auqamist is the general consensus on reliability and safety...

many horror stories with the devils own kits from nozzle screens getting sucked into intake, to pump dying during WOT and not pulling timing back fast enough to prevent detonation.

i ran devils own when i was stage 3 as it was cheap and i was only using it for cooling then, but when i went to Tial 605 turbos i went with aquamist as i was then using it to advance timing and wanted the safety of aquamist then...

Aquamist is one of the most advanced kits. It works based on Injector flow or what is known as injector duty cycle.

Kits works based on boost or based on Injector flow (Injector duty cylce). Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Study the systems very well to decided which one to buy. then you move to the next problem, where to place your nozzles? how many? what size?

Just make sure the nozzle is integrated into 90 deg elbow to avoid problems while installing the nozzle, the following link may help you to decide

http://www.alcohol-injection.com/en/...jection-nozzle

Stay away from big size nozzle for our car when used Pre IC or Post IC, stay with medium (above 300 cc to 450 cc, my advise) and when used before SC, use very small one (60 cc (if possible) to 150 cc)

Good luck

I got a snow performance kit, and they have been around for a very long time. It has not been installed or used, but I can definitely vouch for their quality and tunability.

I use Aquamist HFS3 and one my friends uses it on his supercharged E92 and another friend uses it on his big single turbo FD. It works well, very smart kit.
