Are you using any kindof check valve, or are you running into any syphoning problems with your kit? I've got the SNOW Maf kit, and it seems like it's syphoning some; just hard to say.
Also, anyone with the SNOW Maf kit; what do you have the turn on spray voltage setup at/how much HP are you making for comparison.

Mine turns on at 10 psi (initial turn on) and full on at about 4.6 volts. I'm using the 625 jet and am at the 621 rwhp and 708 rwtq level.

Where/how do you have the nozle mounted? I had mine before the TB at first and it worked ok. It's hard to explain, but where I had it mounted on the bottom of the boot there was a little bit of a low spot/cup. It always seemed to have a "puddle" at it.
Tonight I tried mounting it after the TB in the JLP plenum and it was sucking the fluid out in a hurry! The intake was actually sweating, and the truck was running a very rich idle A/F, and I tried driving it and it went so hard rich early that it choked down. All this and the system didn't have any power hooked up to it!

Both the SMC and Snow kit work equally, although the Snow kit is less money.

I feel like your little brother Jody gets it first then I get it!
On a real note thank's for all you do for me!

Suavy, if I still had it it'd be yours. Unfortunately I sold that kit months ago when I made the change. I do highly recommend them on street trucks. Even when my truck was the typical pulley/chip/cai it picked up over 30 rwhp with alky due to the added timing.

I had the SMC kit as well... and in the process of installing the Snow kit.
Snow recommends installation of the nozzle before the throttle body as well.
The intake is not a good location as it is always sucking. At least the throttle body will close and vary the draw on the lines. Even with the location before the throttle body you can get some siphoning from the tank. So, I got a check valve with the snow kit nevertheless.

I'm gonna get one as soon as I get JDM paid off!

The Check valve only pervents boost from going backwards thru the system. so this wont solve the siphoning problem. Read about the Check Valve Here.

What you need to prevent Siphoning you need to add a Solenoid. you can find out info from snow on the Solenoid here.

I hope this helps you out!

Yup, the SMC kit has this solenoid in line to help siphoning.

With mild tuning, Stiegemeier saw 40 RWHP on Methanol. That's w/ the middle sized jet (forget the #).
I'm sure mine is syphoning as well, and I'm not using the check valve since I'm running the nozzle before the TB. It's actually mounted in the middle hole on the fiberglass tube that replaced my rubber boot. I don't use the PCV setup, so that was the perfect spot.
We're looking to up the tune a bit, and see what she can really do
