Pretty sweet! This is an evolution of the current kit I have, the HFS-1.

So ya, this is an evolution of the HFS-1, featuring technology from the HFS-6 and old HFS-5 kits. They will feature RJ45 (same as your computer network connection) plugs for super easy wiring of the junction box. Wiring these things typically eats a good 45+ mins when I do installs, maybe more. The -3 kit will be pretty much the same setup as the HFS-1 except it'll have built-in boost trigger on top of the IDC (injector duty cycle) trigger. The -2 kit will not include the gauge or failsafe features and be much cheaper, but I would not recommend this option to anyone, as the very fact that they have a well-implemented failsafe is part of what makes Aquamist kits shine above all else!

ALSO, this just in:


The HFS-3 is very similar to the discontinued HFS-5, it mirrors the fuel flow at 1:1 ratio. You can change the ratio by sizing the water jet. However, it does have a gain trimmers to allow some form of rescaling to compensate for large fuel injectors that do not run up to 100%.

It does not have the full set of adjustments offered by the HFS-6.

The aim of this system is to update the HFS-1 to become a P&P progressive system at minimise cost to the end user. Utilising the PWM-valve setup to gain large dynamic flow range .

ZZOMG head 'splosion, so this is a PROGRESSIVE kit? Not a single-stage? It sounds like this is the case. I'm going to nail down what the exact differences are between the -3 and -6, so we can all make more educated buying decisions :)

At least you autocross guys have an excuse not to buy stuff--it could change your class. I have no willpower whatsoever. :drive1:

Screw autoX classes, torque = fun! :D

Or, keep your auto-X class, and just promise to leave the alky off, then when you hit the street:

+50whp/+50wtq with the push of a button :) (this is from my IX turbo setup almost 2 years ago)

I gave up on that, hence why I was in SM this past year. :) Alcohol injection is legal AFAIK, nitrous is not. But it all depends on if you want to have fun, or be competitive. Or be like me and look for a co-drive in a competitive car and work on becoming a car slut. :)

Alcohol is highly corrosive so if you run it, or are thinking about running it, check out this stock FPR from an Evo:

This was after 4 years running a 50/50 meth/water mix. Definitely something to keep in mind and watch out for since the alcohol travels into the FPR, BOV, brake booster, and everything else with a vacuum line attached to the intake manifold.

Maybe that is because he was from MN. LOL

^yea, I'm skeptical about that particular FPR issue, we'll see what becomes of it. I've been running alky for nearly 3 years now (SMC kit installed 1/13/2007) and never noticed rust when I had the FPR disconnected a few times.
