I love that under full boost the car isn't budging a few more deg than ambient max. Lol I'd see 80iat to 120 in a matter of one gear.

Yeah!!! the kit is fully installed and operational. I just need to tidy up the wires to the control unit in the glove box.

And you didn't need a lift or have to pay anyone either.......Looks good.

thanks Jeff your all your help, and yes I never went under the car. FYI, when I drilled the hole for the jet adapter, I removed the rear boost tube up top, pulled the tmap sensor and put my shop vac in there. After all was done I left the boost tube off and turned on the car, gave it some gas to get the turbo moving faster and hopefully blew out anything that the shop vac didn't pick up. I did have a pending code in the ecu after that but I cleared it and all is fine. I routed the tank vent tube through a rubber grommet and it is between the body and the heat shield for the exhaust on the passenger side.

Woot woot! Looks great man. I love the stealth tank location. Can't wait to hear what you think of the performance difference.

Looks good, waiting for drive report.

RE: Aquamist HFS-3 and MINI Tank GB - killerfox - 09-03-2011 04:18 PM

Ok, so I drove it for a little bit and I can't say there is a huge difference. I noticed some more torque steer at times so I guess that means more power. Just wondering if I need to tweek some settings, I have everything set the way it came out of the box. Maybe Jeff or Jan have some recommended settings to start with.

I have a pretty mild car, approximately 210 WHP before the w/m kit and I started off with the 0.6 mm jet and a rough 60/40 water / methanol mix. I noticed some improvement during WOT initially but then I ran into some problems with my jet so I swapped it with the 0.7 mm. Things were pretty good and then I ran out of fluid so I mixed up some 25/75 water / methanol and the performance increase is very noticeable. The power is just always there now at high RPMs.

I have all my settings at the default right now. Hope that helps some.

Try turning the THRES to the left a bit to bring it on a little earlier, depending on how late it's coming on with the boost onset.

If you need more on the top end, you can turn the GAIN to the right a bit.

Make sure the system is spraying fully. If there is an air bubble, it will not flow fully.

What percentage of meth are you running and what jet size?

RE: Aquamist HFS-3 and MINI Tank GB - killerfox - 09-03-2011 04:44 PM

I am running 75/25 mixture and the .7mm jet. I seem to feel more power up high. I am spraying fully as I disconnected hose from jet and it seems to spray quite well. I do have the .9mm flow restrictor installed in the FAV.
