The most popular is probably the SMC kit. I personally have the ams kit and love it.

Check the Water Injection section of the forum for all your questions. There is alot of info there.

The Buscher under hood kit (SMC) for 2003-2004 Evo's uses the intercooler spray reservoir. Everything comes pretapped and assembled....a great kit, and the one I am currently running.

You can also get an SMC trunk mount kit for 2003+ models which hides neatly in the trunk out of view. Both are great solutions.

But there are other kits out there too....probably close to 10 by now....

Send Ultimate CC a pm, I think he has a group buy for them right now. Installed my kit from him not too long ago. Runs great and he's been very helpful.

U-CC, thanks for the PM back.

With the Snow kit (or any trunk install kit), you obvoiusly have to run the hoses from the trunk to the engine bay. Do you just run them inside the moldings along the floor?

I saw the pics of the control unit installed on the passenger floor, that's the standard location for them? Does it include all the wiring necessary to run the indicator lights into the bottom of the gauge cluster like in your pics?

Also, do you know what type of success Al DynoFlash has had tuning the Snow kit (ie, how comfortable is he)? I know he's well versed in the Buschur kit, but is the Snow kit terribly different to tune for?

Yea you run the lines and wire under the rear seat and down the trim to the front to the controllers and then out the firewall to the TB. For me the passanger floor is the easiest and best location but they can go in many other places from the engine bay to the trunk to the glove box. Where ever is the best for you. Tuning the snow kit should be no different than the SMC kit as they both spray progressively according to boost.

The SMC intercooler spray mount kit is very similarly priced to the trunk mount. In fact the SMC and Snow kits are very similar in price too.

Just check the vendor forums on this site for people selling the kits. Then find the best deal!
