Okay, I can't seem to find much information on the Aquamist components so I will throw this out there.
Essentially I have looked at (3) options for my kit but I am interested to hear any opinions:
(1) 2C kit

Fuel Injectors operate in the 1 Millisecond range and are not capable of long term usage for H20 as they will corrode or rust shut in a very short period of time.Then, that limits H2O-CH3OH injection to properly sized nozzles

Okay, so I have run into trouble and have not been able to get any answers from Aquamist so I think I might just give up with them.
I have now researched about 20 different kits and it looks like I will be forced into a variable voltage drive pump for flow control.
My fear is that I am looking for a range from approximately 500cc/min - 775cc/min which they cannot accommodate with their pump controller. Also I worry that the delay from the controller to the pump and pump to nozzle will react to slowly. Hopefully first gear will go very quickly and I am not sure the system will react that fast.
I have narrowed it down to FJO and Perrin but I have been unable to verify flow rates yet.
Any suggestions?

The AEM is probably one of the worst options I have found in some ways and best in others.
Here is the big issue, for optimum performance you need to add the meth proportionally with respect to CFM and temperature just like you do your fuel. With the AEM and others you get 1 or maybe two steps and like entry level nitrous kits you change the jets and or nozzles to add or reduce flow.

Yeah, the AEM kit is terrible.
Nice ride BTW What the setup you are using? I was really hoping to hit 560-600 with meth and race gas with my setup

Why would you run meth and race gas? Especially if your goals are 560-600whp.?
It's obvious in the vids above, that over 600whp can easily be had with an AEM Water/Meth kit and pump gas.
I also don't understand why you say there is no linearity? You set your start PSI and your end PSI and it flows 0-100% How much more linear do you want to get.
