Just curious, Is anyone running a water/meth kit?

If yes, what % mix, what size nozzles are you running and do you have some pictures?

I just picked up an HFS-5 Aquamist kit for my Subaru, and was wondering if anyone in the Maxima community are doing this. There is a lot of extra power to be had and the safety issue is awesome.

Just an FYI, I ended up making 589HP/503TQ on pump + meth when we tuned. I made 624/528 on VP C16. I am running a 75/25 mix of VP M1 meth and distilled water. This thing is nasty on the street with meth.

This was an older video when I was getting some compressor surge, and had about 100 less HP.

Considering it was the first run on the new set up, and a new clutch with 140 miles on it, I was really happy. It was 114* on the timeslip. I am hoping I can get back to the track fairly soon and get some more practice. My second run, I bogged on the launch, but picked up a couple MPH by flat foot shifting, so I know it has more in it. I can't wait to see what it does on the C16 tune.
