AQUAMIST meth kit - anyone has installed this on your vehicle?

hun77777 · 04-20-2010, 06:47 PM

anyone used aquamist meth kit on N54 platform yet? i have couple of friends who had those on Evo and such and highly recommend them over any other meth kit but i haven't seen anyone in this forum used it yet so i thought i'd ask... since they don't have a KIT for our engine, if someone can point out the things needed would be cool too...

Their kits are supposed to be some of the best on the market. they will be pricier than most of the kits advertized on the forum.

I've looked around too, not to much on systems from non forum vendors..

The kits come with everything but the tanks if I am not mistaken. I never bought from the site below but I found it in one of my searches on this forum.

Aquamist is legit

I have a HFS6osa ready to go on my M3 once i'm ready for it.

a32guy · 04-20-2010, 09:56 PM

Aquamist > all others.

I was srsly laughing at the coolingmist video to program that ugly ass gauge, lol.

i don't wanna bash any other vendor or product but i do believe that aquamist make quality product and has gained a great reputation within industry.

my friend has hfs6 on his sti and that's what i was thinking of doing but i just don't seem to find anyone did it on 335i. i was ready to take a hit on price as i know about aquamist already and their superior quality but don't wanna be a guinea pig and going through trial and error. just want one clean install and be done with it...

a32guy · 04-20-2010, 11:09 PM

If anything, the newer Aquamist kits will be cleaner to install because of less wires. Many connections are plug and play.

JoeyFiasco · 04-20-2010, 11:38 PM

OT but this is the kit I been thinking about getting. I found them when FBIS did his wideband review

The Latest news from BMW section of Howerton Engineering:

"The HFS-6 N54 electronics package to read the Direct Injection System is complete and in final stages of field testing."

whatever that means

some meth injection systems use fuel injector duty cycle as an input

Aquamist sprays based on fuel injector duty cycle. Having that input added is a clear advantage. You want to keep the octane level appropriate all the time. Methanol needed is based on the amount of fuel injected.

Terrance28 · 04-21-2010, 05:52 AM

Looks very nice, alot of nice features with this kit.

a32guy · 04-21-2010, 05:57 AM

I believe the HFS-6 can interpret DI injector signals, whereas the HFS-3 and other kits cannot.

According to our experience on this forum, such a statement means about 1.5-2 years until release.

According to this link: http://www.howertonengineering.com/Aquamist_hfs3.html, the HFS3 does recieve a injector duty cycle singal. How it interprets this is unclear.

Quote from the above link:

"The system retrieves the fuel flow (IDC) and manifold pressure signals (MPS) from the engine management system as the prime source to control the flow of water."
