The aquamist HFS-1 is good for stock turbo application and have a good failsafe.
You can get a sub $400 system but without flow sensor based failsafe. You can easily spne another $150 adding a failsafe (without dash gauge).

Well then look forward to problems and engine failure. Not sure how much you read up but Aquamist is the best...if your worried about the $ then you should put your car back to stock.....modding an evo isn't a cheap sport.....

Well it's the truth most of the guys who go cheap in their mods end up with problems later and then they cry about why my car blew up. In some cases you will buy lets say an AEM meth kit then realize you need something better then you sell it for less then half what you paid and then buy a real kit like aquamist. But the OP doesn't seem to informed about these things....oh well too bad. I will be ordering my HFS-6, Howardenginerring intergarted tank, 3 port boost solenoid, and tephra mods....I love 500+ at the touch of a button

We sent the same message via PM.
You want to save $150 but sacrifice a $5000 engine?

If you are quite handy with your mechanical and electrical work, you can build the following system (with failsafe) for around $400.00.

Which is why we will NEVER install an AEM kit again after the first. Complete garbage.
