Tuning for the S63's isn't where it is for the S63TU, so while my tuner can tune for meth, I still have to use the JB4 which Terry has made clear he's not going support any meth issues if I'm not using his kit. I can't justify giving this to the GF to use in her 535xiT either lol, so I'd rather just sell it for what I'm into it.

Look elsewhere for a tuning that will support your meth system. IMO
You cn find problems with all kits on the market - some are user/fitment error some with the manufacturer.

The BMS meth injection kit and JB4 have been nothing but reliable for me, I went with compression fittings everywhere and took the time to install so would have no issues with wiring or rubbing etc.

Terrry gives great support for his stuff, don't blame him for not getting involved in other systems - he is busy enough with all his own projects and customers...

I wouldn't say Devils own is "better" per say it can just get the job done with less of a cost mated with the right parts.

All the basic stage 1 kits from DO, AEM, CM and Snow are comprised of mostly universal parts which are the pump tank lines and nozzles. (I'm going to avoid the nozzle debate for the sake of ease as they technically do differ).

So the only thing that can further separate those kits apart from the rest is either the controllers, failsafes or hardware in general.

So when you take a DO kit, then mate it with stainless steel braided line hardware the only thing you are missing is the controller and failsafe.

That's where AEM comes in.

I should probably make an illustration or something but at the end of the day if you want to build a good kit and not pay the Aquamist price tag I'd do Devils Own Stage 1 + Upgraded Stainless Steel Lines + Dual Nozzle (If applicable) + Race Tank + AEM Fail Safe & Gauge.

If you don't want to fit the race tank then a basic 1 Gallon Universal will be fine.

The BMS kit is a coolingmist kit with the BMS failsafe.

Keeping that in mind if you want to make a BMS/CM kit better you can get the DO braided lines but it will cost you more since it's not being purchased with a DO kit.

Hopefully that answers some questions but it probably created more confusion haha

Anyone who uses Aquamist, AEM, etc please view this thread and see what BMS is saying towards other kits http://www.n54tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44410

Both sellers say each owns kit is the best of the best. Unfortunately I'm stuck so I'm trying to just sell my Aquamist setup.
