Aquamist System Install Eye Candy (pics)

I wanted to share some of the recent art of our Ferrari Master tech Geroge on some Aquamist installs - he is very talented

We do a lot of Aquamist installs and his work is really neat, tidy and professioanl

Hopefully this can give you guys some ideas on your installs

That’s a pretty clean install on the Evo.

Although you should be careful about installing an HFS-5 in the same location. The HSV is pretty sensitive to heat and can be damaged easily with excessive heat and lack of airflow. The back of the engine bay can get pretty hot sometimes. There are a couple HSV failures that have been blamed on being mounting in the location.

I'm sure you guys have done a ton of installs without any problems, but I'm just giving you a heads up.

I prefer to mount my HSV and flow sensor beneath the windshield wiper cover. Provides protection from heat, good airflow, and is also very stealth while still maintaining easy serviceability.

I agree with dudical26. However Al that can work its just a question how long.

That looks like the HFS-1 kit so HSV shouldnt be a worry.

dudical, on that install, where do you have the lines going into that wiper area and then back out? I like the mounting location but haven't seen holes for the lines to come out of...just drill one?

This is from memory so I might be wrong -

On the passanger side there is a white/grey colored grommet just to the right and behind the strut tower. This grommet has a couple wires leading into the wiper area. I just poked another hole in the grommet and ran the wires through there.

On the driver side I drilled a small hole and used a grommet from Autozone to fill the hole. I drilled the hole basically just opposite where it is on the other side.

Let me know if you need more info or if that helps.

That is not my STI - I will post up some pics of my own install - not as trick as the Ferarri guy's work but its OK lol

That is our customer's 675 whp pump gas and Aquamist STI in the pics

I have never had a problem mountint the high speed valves in the engine compartment - we just keep them away from the turbo and near wiring areas

Ricahrd has recommended clear acrylic tube W/ open ends for this.

You want to protect it from heat and water but five it some air flow.

Sleeve if not tight should work.
