Here are some more recent pictures after making a few changes. As mentioned I removed the T so the turbo feeds directly into the tank, the air port on the atomizing nozzle is now tapped after the intercooler on the elbow. I tapped a new hole in the tank for the pressure switch. All the lines have been replaced with silicone, except the one on the turbo is still fuel injector line. I changed the injecting point from 3 psi to 8 psi which drastically lowered my water usage. I used to run out of water in under 20 mins of hard street driving, now it lasts several trips out. Drilled the nozzle to flow more water, I tested the new flow by setting my air compressor to 20 psi and allowing the water to flow into a measuring container for 1 minute.(500cc/min @20psi)I'm using a pretty trick fuel filter I picked up at Walmart for $10 dollars, it filters the water nicely and is serviceable for cleaning. In the last picture my tank has been moved more to the driver's side. I did this when I relocated my battery to the storage container. I plan on replacing the curved boost pipe with a straight pipe now that I have room. That's about it. Been working flawlessly for nearly a year at over 500 rwhp.
