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:

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?

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.
