Default Re: Aquamist HFS-3 system for 2010 ..... "Q and A"

I am having the kit installed early next week in a 2003 Subaru wrx 2.5 hybrid. I also have the dual tank from howerton eng. I won't be getting tuned for a couple of weeks though.

I haven't read the install instructions thoroughly but some of it will be beyond my comprehension. Anyway, my question is can I just drop the kit and tank off to be installed and can the installer just follow the instruction booklet or will he need to access the site for wiring and failsafe instructions?

And here's a picture of the custom gauge install:

That was where the stereo was. Because I listen to to engine now-adays, I don't need a big system anymore. I just use my iPod touch.

Richard, what about my question above.

"There's something missing in this picture......where's the V1? It's a necessity where I am."

too many gauges to monitor for V1

You can use water of any kind. It is a matter of reducing maintenance time. Hard minerial water will cause clogging with time.

De-ion ior De-min water is very cheap in 25 litre drums.

The arrow should be point upwards. The float level should point upwards when the tank is full. You are probably the first.

Default Re: Aquamist HFS-3 system for 2010 ..... "Q and A"

ok i have two issues. first about my car and setup. i am usign 4x1050cc injectors running at 50-60% DC max. i have two jets one is the 0.8 and 0.9. i have put a 0.7 restrictor. the thresh i set at 12% (minimum) and gain at 1.2 (20% extra). HL and HW are respectivly set at their maxes so it shouldnt light the yellow LED. i have two problems.

1) on initial start the 8 flow lights light up then it settle to 7lights. is that cuz i am using jets that are too big??
2) on spoolup i get the failsafe yellow led flash up. i have worked out if the car remains at low IDC for long enough (like going up a hill with lowish boost) the light will come up. or if i load the car in higher gear like the 6th the light will come up. i have also worked out that if i rotate the thresh till 3rd line (about 20-23IDC) then the light does not come up.... except that means the meth does not start till i am running 16-18psi... i want it comming on at 5-10psi or about 12-15% IDC. as i am soon moving to a place where i dont have access to good quality fuel.

can anything be done??
