Finally...Water/Alcohol Injection is installed!
This was actually a fairly easy install, but it just took a long time to complete.
Hardware consists of the following:
-Aquamist Basic Water Injection Kit.
-JDM 12 litre water tank.
-On/off switch.
-Modified I/C-to-Throttle body hose
My plan was to have both the water injection & the stock I/C sprayer come on at a preset level of boost, which is presently 12psi.
I don't have any numbers to brag about yet, but will have the car dyno'd shortly at S^2.
My friend, RC51Driver, came over & took it for a test drive.
Other than TBE exhuast, our cars are the same.
Compared to his 05 STi, he said that it pulled harder above 5500rpm, but that was just with water.
I'll post more info after the dyno run.

I'm busted by the salesman that sold me the STi!!
I have an appointment with S^2 on July 5th to see just how everything is doing.
Until then, I'll leave it switched off.

He beat carsdirect.com's price; right around MSRP out the door...and a balloon.
I emailed him my preferences & he replied with a price for every car that fit the bill.

When you are on your way home from S2 you will be stopping by here for my test drive in your car right?
