As regarding the placement of water jet, anywhere between the intercooler exit or few inches before the throttle plate will be good. You will get slightly better cooling effect if it was futher away from the throttle. But if you last problem was due to detonation, perhaps closer to the throttle will allow more unevaporated water to enter the cyclinder for knock control. The difference is only slight.

PS, Ben have a great deal of experience on the Subaru.

I purchased the 2c only because I got a good deal from somebody you had had it for a while but never used it...

The autronic is an SM4 PnP ECU and has a spare output AFAIK...

The autronic can't switch maps on the fly, but can have a map loaded which trims fuel or timing based upon input signal values...

What are the advantages of a 2d over a 2c? Can I buy specific components to make the 2c into a 2d?

Also, are there any issues with placing the jet before the blow-off valve as shown in my engine bay?
