    Oh man I agree, I could tell you about a time I almost flew off a bridge here. Scariest moment of my driving career, including spinning out at the road course in my car

    So I decided against that prometh nozzle holder. Taking ideas from their Sniper 2 though. Going to see if I can drill/tap for 2 nozzles here shooting straight into the TB.

    might be easier. I wouldn't put it on the bottom of the tube. being that the butterfly opens up you could get good flow with them mounted on the sides.

    You'll want the spray to be across the flow of air for proper dispersion. The way the arrow is pointed the spray would paint the inner right side of the intake tube right before the throttle body.

    It would have to be to the drivers side of the tube then. But not immediately before the TB because the silicone coupler occupies that whole space. Maybe at 2 and 4 o clock. Supercharger snout is right under the tube. Would the water droplets run into each other being that close?

    Would putting the nozzles inline instead of radially be okay?

    I think even on the corner as long as they are aimed straight across the airstream and not in the same direction the arrow is pointed at it should be fine. Google might be your friend. My intake tube was a straight shot straight into the throttle body so it was pretty ideal.

    The only straight section on this tube is in the middle but I read that’s too far away from the TB. Ideally you want the nozzles 6” or less from the TB, correct?

    I believe so. Snow doesn't provide a rough install guide? Again, google helps, I used it a ton for my install since there was no info for aquamist installs on a taco.

    Instructions don’t mention much about nozzle placement. My Google fu doesn’t seem to turn up any results on nozzle placement either.

    Yep seen both of those threads already. Googled those exact words too. I guess I could buy multiple intakes and try all the spots

    Fixed my system. Controller was in "read only" mode, so it wasnt providing positive to the pump to activate it. A quick call to snow and they said this was likely the problem. Got it going this evening

    This is the stage 3 controller for reference

    Now thinking water/methanol system for my car. Just for a small amount of knock protection while at the track. Finding a place to mount the pumps will be interesting, though. The washer fluid container could certainly double as the meth reservoir which is good, but it's waaay down low and the pumps would end up somewhere down by it. There might be room inside the fascia but it'd be hella annoying and fun to get there.
