Over-priced unless you're scared of electronics.

Cooling Mist sells the most flexible stuff, and all of it can be replaced for an order of magnitude cheaper if you have a journeyman-level understanding of electronic control systems.

Snow Performance sells perfectly functional units of course. I just don't see $800 or whatever for a couple solenoid stages tied to pressure, a pump and a reservoir.

I bought a Snow stage II kit a couple years ago. It was the worst money I have ever spent on performance parts. Snows customer service sucks they don't stand behind what they sell and they will give you the run around until you are out of warranty. The kit did none of what they advertised no cooling, no HP gains (6hp loss on dyno) no matter what setup I went with ie: jet sizing water/meth %, it did and does nothing. Snow water/meth kits SUCK I would not recommend them to anyone. Save yous self the heart ache and buy a different kit or go a different rout to achieve the cooling/hp you are after. Here is more on this. http://www.cumminsforum.com/forum/ge...r-service.html

I am getting the Labonte DIS-S3 setup, it is similar to the Snow MPG-Max, but it proactive instead of reactive, it reads the injector rate and duty cycle to add fluid before boost and EGT's raise rather then reacting to them raising like the snow unit...
