i've a subaru sti tuned to 420hp approcimately and i've fitted the aquamist 2d...i've a blocked jet just after the fitting and i've seen that there's fex week only... :sad: :sad:

so now i constat that i've knock correction which are lower than without WI.. :roll: :shock:

i've try the 0.7mm jet at stock water pressure, with 3/4anto clock wise setting, ...but it's not good ...so i don't know if the jet is too high or too small....so, can you help me... :roll: :sad: :?:

afr=12, boost = 1.6b, 4*505cc injector at 100%, fmic, jet position : after fmic and 50cm before throttle body

another things : the exterior temperature isn't very high..so do i must activate the aquamist ? can the water low inlet temerature more than the fmic with low temp ext ?...i'm disapointed...but when my jet (0.8mm) was blocked (not totally in fact, there was a minimum injection) i've better result !...so i can i must reduce the jet size but.... :roll:

thanks to help me ! :wink:

Are you water nozzle clogging because of mineral buildup? Use deionized water.....if thats the case.
0.8 jet with "a little" clogging =smaller orifice = better atomization = better water/air mixture?

"home" water = water straight from the tap?

no good.....go to the store and get yourself some distilled or deionized water. You will stop clogging due to mineral buildup in the nozzle.

Wont distilled water work also? I have only had 3 tanks or so thru my system and have always used distilled water from the grocery store. Is this OK?
