Start a new thread and post your car there, I love to see the final destination of the HFS-3 journey. My last view was the Fedex collection truck.

Video of testing Aquamist HFS-3 with HydraEMS controlling water injection via a 2d PWM map and an auxiliary map. When the Aquamist is switched on, the HydraEMS switches to auxiliary maps (fuel & timing) Any faults revert the HydraEMS back to the base map. Nice Failsafe!

Looks nice. I like how the pump is upright, this is to get the panel to fit correct?

Correct. The orientation of the tank and pump allow for installation of the black plastic cover, keeping the kit hidden and protected from trunk contents.

Amazing how well the gauge colours matches the instrument panal in the dark!

Thanks, I used a 3/4" polypropylene bulkhead fittings to couple the surge tank to the main tank. A "breather" tube from the top of the surge tank to the top of the main tank would make it better. But I tested the 3/4" fitting and it's large enough to allow free flow between the 2 tanks with only a very small amount of air trapped on the top of the surge tank. I was able to tighten the fitting enough so that it holds the surge tank very well. These fittings are quite sturdy.
I used stainless steel 306 for the brackets. I stood on top of the main tank and the brackets were just about to yield. I weigh 155 lbs (11.07 St)
