I have a question about the water injection... what is the difference between the two water injection kits that b-chips has? why is one 300 bucks more expensive?!

second- how much is distilled water per gallon

third- how long does your tank generally last? a couple days, a week, months???
thanks guys.

edit: im also a bit concerrned about hydrolocking...if the kit malfunctions and keeps injecting after you are out of boost, will you hydrolock the engine???
Doug at the place thatI won't mentionhere because it's filtered out anyway... tailored the kit to the X-Charger after a lot of research. That's why you should buy the one from him.

Distilled water is cheap. Get it at Wally World or any other place. Personally, I run Boost Juice bought from Summit Racing (best price).

I'm the guy with the hydrolocking situation and it's because I didn't have a light monitoring when the pump was firing. As I've stated on that other unmentionable place, don't install the kit without a light -- you "can," but I'd sure recommend against it. Do NOT blame what happened to me on the kit. It is adjusted where I wanted it, at 3 PSI, and the light does what it should... it's on when the Boost Juice is on, and it's off when the Boost Juice is off. Purge the "malfunctioning kit" thing from your mind. I even had it, briefly, set to 2 PSI... but again, with the light, I knew when the pump was firing and that made it a piece of cake to adjust the setting on the pump. I'm thoroughly convinced there isn't a damn thing wrong with the pump, I just had it set too low and didn't know it because I DID NOT HAVE A LIGHT INSTALLED! Bottomline, don't worry about the kit.

The "tank" lasts as long as you let it. If you're into boost, you're into the Juice (or water). It's TOTALLY up to you how long it lasts. What might last a month for you might last someone else for three months and might last me for three days.
