Default Aquamist HFS-6 in a BMW E39 M5; By Howerton Engineering.

Hello Gents,

Thought I would post a video of my E39 M5 with its newly fitted HFS-6, custom designed by none other than Jeff Howerton of Howerton Engineering in Northern California. It should match up well with the ESS S/C in my Biest.

In a nutshell, Ihave only had it a few days and am still dialing it in with regards to cycle and AFR's, but it is truly a custom show quality piece.

I have attached the UTube link for observation. Jeff combines the fine quality of Aquamist's top of the line water injection system with his own personalized one-off customization and OCD personality. I cant say enough abouth the thoght and sweat that he puts into his work and product.

Enjoy and Thanks again to Jeff Howerton and Aquamist!!

Great video, this car is amazingly well looked after, I bet it looks even better in the flesh. The tank is just... speechless, Jeff has done another master piece. I have copied this thread on the gallery section.

Richard,

Thank you for the compliment and Thank you for suppling such a magnificent system. Now that I have the cut-in and Boost-a-Pump system in sych with appropriate AFR's, the car is absolutely breath-taking. Normal driving conditions around town until approx. 3,500 RPM which is when the Vortech V3 and the HFS-6 start to come on. I couldnt be moe pleased.

This is a follow-up to my Aquamist system installation. Had the car dynoed now that I feel it was pretty darn close to dialed.

Video #1 is a walkaround of the car showing teh cruxt of the system install.

Video# 2 will show you I netted 549 RWHP on this dyno run. On the E39 M5, we use 15% slip factor so I am somewhere north of 630 crankshaft HP. I should note that I have been to the same dyno shop, used the same dyno oerpator & equipment on a total of 5 different days over the past 1.5 years. I baselined the car at stock; with headers and software; S/C with leaks in the system; S'C @ 6 psi and now with the HFS6 Methanol system installed.

That means I netted approx. 40 RWHP increase by using the system on my car, in unison with the S/C system. Very sporting and worth the effort IMHO.

Enjoy the videos, there are more, but didnt want to bore you to much with the details.
