A little different than the current context. They were suppliers for their intercooler spray system.

Just need to make sure your pump won't fire unless the car is under load (making boost) to avoid hydrolock situations.

Agreed that if using WMI can be avoided then it should...

Im pretty sure they supplied water injection parts too but I could be wrong, it was a long long long time ago since I last talked to Richard.


Yeah, I wouldn't run meth in today's situation. We have way too many high quality fuelling options to be relying on meth, and even with the good canbus control there are still short comings with meth (batch fired, uneven distribution if its not direct port, etc).

So I had some time to look at devils own new offerings and some of them are an incredible step forward. Their frostbite controller seems to be decent, with the ability to tap into the canbus network, pulse either a valve or the pump and it has proper fail safes. They also seem to be reusing prometh's fast acting solenoid so that's another big plus.

Ok now this is different from their old dcv 100 controller is what I think was utter garbage. Their new stuff seems not bad, but again id still opt for Aquamist because of the proven track record and excellent hardware, or torqbyte because they actually have proven they know how to make good electronics and good canbus integration.
