Its been around for a couple of years now. They also sell a kit that uses CO2 instead of NO2. Its alot cheaper to fill a bottle that way. I heard it can drop the core temp by as much as 40 degrees.

Hey, how about an Aquamist system for the MSP? It can "add" a few pounds of boost to the system by lowering the temp of the intake air and by making it more dense. This system also just uses water and costs the same as the N02 system.

do you know of a website or place to purchase this aquamist system?

there is also a new product that uses co2 to cool intake temps but it is placed right b4 the throttle body. I would love to see any of these products used. I have heard great things about water/alchol injection.

I used an aquamist system on my Alltrac and thought it was a bit overrated. It did have more balls, but bearly noticeable and the 3S-GTE responds very well to mods. I'm pretty much done with water injection. The best thing for the money I've seen lately is that intercooler 'cooler' that uses carbon dioxide. Only thing is if you have the stock vertical IC, good luck fitting it in. Thats goes for the NO2 as well.

Go to google and type in Aquamist, this will give you a direct link, or you can go to Flyin' Miata (they sell them in the US).

Did not like the water injection? Was this one of the older kits or a new one that varies the amount of water based on boost, intake temps, ect. . . I just think that it would be cheaper then filling up a bottle with N02 every week, plus you are lossing that space in your trunk for luggage and stuff.

has anyone thought of using a nos kit to kill turbo lag but aiming the purge kit at the intercooler to keep it chilled.. kind of like a 2 in one thing?

hmm, that might be interesting, exept you'd be purging all the damn time, might burn out the solenoid
