Both of my meth systems were cabin controlled. No reason why this system couldn't be done in similar fashion.

Yeah - but even the HS3 is modulated so that injects at just the right quantity etc, so sure you can turn the whole system off/on, but the rest happens automatically.

On the water mist system it's just a simple on/off from the cab whether it's needed or not.

Even my WI on my SAAB 99 2Dr turbo back in the early 80's had a switch that brought the system on when boost reached 0.9bar IIRC, and then overrode the waste gate so that it could go to about 1.5 bar! I'm sure controls have got more sophisticated since then!

Ah, I gotcha. Yeah, that'd be cool.

I don't get it.

Don't use the Devils Own kit. I hate it (although I do like the 7 litre boot tank).
I had an HSF-3(?) Aquamist on the saloon but it broke and was replaced under warranty, however, I'm yet to return to MRC so they can refit it.
I digress.
Before it broke, it was awesome and according to Classba (who runs a C6 with 900+ HP) the Aquamist HSF-4 version is even better, 3D mapping blabla. That said I ran the HSF-3 for safety on my 'loon (C5 RS6 MRC stg3 605PS 846Nm), it wasn't mapped to run constantly, if it were, it may be good for another 20-30HP.
The Devils Own kit on my avant (manual C5 RS6 MRC stg? 778PS 869Nm) is mapped for meth, it "apparently" makes 40HP less when the meth is switched off. That said, the avant just doesn't seem to suffer too much from heat soak, well not like the 'loon anyways. The avant has two extra custom oil coolers and a massive FMIC, maybe that's why?
The DO kit is simple and direct, top quality. I say user error:) Simple for sure, but mine's been great for years, easily adjustable.
