This would be perfect, just too pricey!

Any updates, how much more power does it make?

I ordered my coolmist smart controller last night. Thanks

On the way out to California it gave me 10-15 MPH higher top speed without going over 1250 degrees at the pyrometer.

I was a little bit disappointed, but when I got done with that 330 mile test drive I realized that I forgot to put the fuses in all but my smallest solenoid.

Once I got to California and my old home town the fuzz started pulling me over three times a day, so I was a bit too scared to do much in the way of testing.

On the way back I had some kind of wiring issue due to electrical connections laying in the bottom of a tool box full of water, so the pump didn't work real well.

And now Diesel is $5.00 a gallon, I am unemployed, and I owe the machine shop $1000 I don't have...

I had all three solenoids working for a couple days. I had everything opening by 15 PSI. It doesn't make that fast of a drop, but it seems to keep dropping temperatures for a long time. I can still go over 1250 easy, but I don't need to throttle back nearly as hard to keep it at 1250. Whereas before I could accelerate at half throttle at a sustained temperature, now I can accelerate at about 3/4's throttle.

But, I need to figure out a way to make sure I'm flowing any water at all. I don't have too much confidence in my little pump.

Haven't pressure tested it yet, but checked the nozzles and flow tested them.

Little nozzle:


Little and middle nozzle:


Little and middle and big nozzle:


I didn't notice any major drop off in pressure with all three going. The only drops you can see with all three going are a few that collect and stream off the diffuser wire on the big one.
I ran them all into a bucket for 60 seconds and only got 9 cups, or 9/16's a gallon a minute (34 gallons per hour). Not quite the rated 40 GPH at 100 PSI, but respectable. I think another pump in series should get over 40 GPH...
The diffusers were all solid still. I don't think they're going anywhere (knock on wood).
