Default Who'd you pick?

Well, like most I can't decide on what product or manufacturer to go with on this one. Other than the ask your tuner, how did you decide on what meth kit to go with?? There are so many to choose from and each have different failsafe's! Is it possible to narrow it down in some way??

I guess MY background is:

I'm stage 2(OTS AP)
plan on 50/50 injection(unless tuner suggest otherwise)
Will run this until I upgrade turbo and FMIC
Will eventually only drive this as a "weekend car"

Other than that what else do I need to know??

pretty much Aquamist is the best hands down...pricey though
there are many kits out there! just remember if ur installing it urself or having someone else do it!. the more failsafes there are the more time u have to get billed for! for cheap i'd run the AEM or the cooling mist (remember to only get the progressive kits)

I know about the progresive. I'll probably do the install with friends, but haven't a clue. Right now I'm just waiting what my tuner is gonna say.

Aquamist here. Have the 2D system and would buy it again without a thought. Been completely flawless for nearly 2 years other than I ran 100% meth through it and needed to replace the seals in the pump. My fault though.

Aqua mist or snow performance. They both offer very good fail safes. I like that the snow performance one can pull timing AND boost, not sure if the aq mist system can do that

I did research before buying? Ended up seeing Aquamist was the best product, and also the most expensive, so I got the fully loaded one that I can integrate into my stand-alone for map switching.

I personally have a Snowperformance stage 2 progressive system and love it. I am in the works of finally installing my Labonte IFS10 failsafe.

Never an issue with my system!
