If you dont like hydrolock, Id stay away from kits that you have to ask people if they've heard of.

Kit looks good to me. Looks pretty much like my homemade kit. The only thing i would advise getting (not neccessary) is a solenoid instead of the check valve. I personally dont have either since my pump is 4 inches away from the tb elbow and doesn't siphon because i am tapped off the stock windshield washer tank.

And just incase anyone chimes in, i have been running this for months with no issues.

Ok guys, I think Im going to pick it up..but some questions first. They list I need to pick a nozzel size...

all my mods are up to date, so what would you tell him for That?

Ill list
1 nozzel at throttle body, because Im front mount intercooled.
1997cc
2.0L
Front mount intercooled
Turbo

But what about EST HP? Im on 14B at about 18-19 lbs I was thinking of giving a 210-285WHP range, because I think thats what the 2nd stage is good for.

Im really excited about getting this, having my motor burn cooler, practically steam cleaning my motorand just allow for no knock. I dont kow why people dont make this a manditory mod....anyway Ill post results with a log before and after if peopl would like to know..

Also Does someone want to point me in the directing for a replacment soleniod for that check valve...and how is that actuated through an electrical sorce? Thanks

Alright I got off the phone with chance at devils own ( Irony, I know ) and after giving him my specifications his est was I would need a 3gph nozzle...he also explained that that was alittle ( verylittle bit ) big, but they dont come in 1/2 sizes....ant wont cause a problem

Heres my question to the folks who are full of knowledge....

Should I opt for the 2gph and just make up the difference wiht fuel or run the 3gph and be done. lastly

The devils own is a 150 psi pump and the kit is 175

I can get the base kit from coolingmist.com for 224 with a tank,but its only a 100 psi pump


http://www.coolingmist.com/pagedispl...key=Turbo_kits

Thanks for the input.

I have but they seem to be higher prices, but also more advanced kits in a HP kind of way.

My next 2 mods are 1G TB, going on tomorrow and a water injection kit, what ever I go with here.

If I absolutly cant get the cooling mist kit stated above for 199 then I think Ill try to work some thing out wiht each vendor...both have had great customer service. Also what I like about the devils own kit is they have a forum dedicated to their kits and what not.

I have been searching and have decided to go with a checkvalve, and not solenoid....cooling mist informed me that the main part that was replaced under warranty was the solenoid...they failed...alot. They have a 0% failure rate on their check valves.

What nozzle are you guys running on your 14b, at say about 18lbs? Thanks guys.
