Yeah...I did get it installed and tuned. Its awesome. Richard ended up overnighting a set of restrictors to me. They were in my hands last friday and that night I was testing the kit to make sure everything was right. Awesome service on his part. Thanks for answering all my noob questions by the way

Wire looms look very nice. It seems to me as if the low flow sensor is a bit too low... It should be a little higher than the outlet...

Do they come with a fail-safe or a gauge that will alert you if you get a clog, malfunction or run out of Meth? What kind of HP & TQ can you safely gain, I don't want to risk trashing my engine should a problem occur. PM or email a price shipped to 34983 (w/ 6 Qt tank)

the float sensor is in the front position of the tank. if you are accelerating (i.e. using meth) the water level will drop from the front tripping the float long before the feed fitting which is in the back position. that was my thinking anyway... if you want the float mounted further up i can do that without a problem. the only thing with mounting it higher up is you end up not ever using a large part of the tank.

they come with both the fail-safe for low water level, and a flow sensor which will trip if it not flowing enough (clogged nozzle), or if it is flowing to much ( a line pops off for instance). when the failsafes trip, the controller can either turn off a electronic boost controller and bring you back down to wastegate pressure. if you have a manual boost controller it will come with a MAC valve which will bypass the MBC in case of a problem. and last, if you have the stock boost controller, it has an internal relay to turn of the solenoid yet still fool the ecu into thinking its still hooked up (no CEL).

it also comes with a gauge which has a LED bar graph which indicates the flow rate. it also has a led for tank water level low, and if the failsafe is tripped. there is also a on/off switch in the gauge in case you don't want to use meth and just want to cruise around on wastegate pressure (or with my kit you can bypass that for electronic boost controllers to have a off, low and high boost setting) PM coming your way!

well i got pictures of the pump bracket and tank bracket test fitting. good news is it utilizes two factory welded nuts, and only requires drilling two holes for the pump. both are done from inside the trunk and doesn't require taking the bumper off. the pump can be mounted in about 15 minutes

the tank is mounted so it pivots out and can be refilled easily. this also allows easy access to the tank below it. with both tank and pump in position the trunk carpet fits in front and hides both from view making for the stealth look.

i have the pictures on my digital camera and will post them tomorrow

one suggestion: drill a hole on the junction box cover for easy access to adjust the WI trigger

Ditto. That's what I did too. I also can see the LED light up through the hole.

sorry for the long delay, but here are some pictures of the internally loaded pump bracket. it does not require you to take the bumper off! in fact, it even uses two existing nuts on the chassis.
here is the pump in place. the finalized bracket will be a bit more refined, but the demo worked great! the pump goes in in about 15 minutes.



the tank:





i'll get some more up shortly of the wiring all in place. so far i've done 5 kit installs, and i'm having a hard time keeping up with all the work
