I have a source for Shurflo pumps right across the street from me, but they want over $200 for a 150 PSI pump; the best places to get a pump from are Devil's Own, Cooling Mist or Snow, for around $115-150.

The best nozzles are $20 diffuser nozzles available from McMaster-Carr; way better than the stuff the waterjection companies sell for the same price.

The best DIY controller is the "SMART DMS" from Cooling Mist; computer programmable datalogger/ multi-dimensional control unit for $200, capable of way more than the standalone controllers other companies sell for way more. You can get pressure transducers and temperature transducers for it off of eBay for a few Jacksons apiece.

The best solenoids I've found are from Cooling Mist for $40 a piece; I haven't found any other sources for them for any cheaper.

That's all assuming you don't want to build a real big-boy 1000 PSI injection system out of nitrous solenoids and a pressure washer.
