SMC Alky Kit Install
One of my winter-long projects was to get an alky kit going on the evo. I have wanted to do alky injection on all of my dsm's, but have never gotten around to it until now. It really took a lot less time than I thought it would, but then again I went with a kit put together by SMC Enterprises. The fit and finish is quite nice, and overall the install took maybe 3 hours (I took my sweet *** time and tied everything down all nice like). Here's some pics for your enjoyment

A little gin-n-juice for the evo
Shot of the tank and pump all assembled. The pump has a built-in pressure sensor that ensures 40psi of pressure is being provided. This will be mounted in the trunk.
This is the progressive controller. Set to start spraying once it sees 10psi, and be spraying full 100psi of pressure by the time the controller sees 20psi of manifold pressure. The 'spray' light only comes on when the pump is flowing 40psi of pressure.
SS fuel line and pump assembly wiring harness. This provides power to the pump, but also sends the pump's pressure sensor signal back to the controller (this signal can be tapped into later for integration with AEM EMS).
The nozzle assembly. Note the pressure gauge for testing

Just under the tank is a breathing tube/drain tube of some sort. I stuck the SS line through there.
I really wanted to keep the zip ties to a minimum, but here it was really necessary.
SS line runs through a spare spot on these brackets that run under the car. These also secure brake and fuel lines.
Had to find a 25/64" drill bit to drill the right hole, but it fits perfect. A little blue loctite will keep this from coming loose.
Had to put at a bit of an angle so I could still fit a wrench in there to tighten this little 7gph nozzle:

Not as incogneto as I would have liked, but nice and clean will do.
Trunk all buttoned up.
Open container of alcohol? Why no officer, I'm not sure what you're talking about
I'm sure this kit could be adapted to fit in a DSM as well. I'll be posting dyno results soon, hks 280's are going in this week

That's awesome, how much did this kit cost you? And how often do you antissipate you will have to refill the alky? What happens if you run out of it, do you just stay out of boost to avoid pre-detonation?

There is an excellent write-up on integrating with EMS in the alky/meth section. I'll be implementing it sometime this summer, whenever I get an EMS unit to fool around with.

Awesome, Im ordering this kit this week I think. Question though, how are you supposed to fill the tank with meth/alcohol if its set back in the cubby so far? I guess you have to get a spout or something?

Yea, just get a funnel with a long neck on it. I keep mine under the carpet in the trunk so I am never without it.
Actualy, I don't even use it anymore! Check this out:
