New to water/meth help!

[1QKSrt4]

So a buddy of mine who isnt on the forums just picked up a brand new snow performance kit, this one to be exact

Snow Performance: Stage 2 SRT-4 Boost Cooler?

Just curious so i dont know much about meth and neither does he, what else does he need? I was thinking all he needs is the solenoid upgrade if he mounts the tank in the rear or in any place where its higher than the nozzle, correct? Anything else im missing?

[OTownSRT4]

nothing

[fr33fir3]

yea just needs a check valve and he is set.

I think there was a CV in that pic

What is the check valve?? What does it do?

[srt4geezer]

Keeps the meth from continuing to dribble into the Intake piping when not under boost. Especially good for when parked. If no check valve fluid will continue to drip into intake/IC & flood the motor when you start your car.

Wouldnt that be the same thing as having the solenoid i talked about??

Solinoid does the same thing. Just more complicated. Checkvalve = simple.

If the bulkhead fitting on the tank is lower than where you have your nozzle then you don't need a check valve/solenoid. This kit DOES NOT include a check valve. This is supposed to be built into the pump. Adding an extra checkvalve with hurt the fluid pressures. I'm using this same kit with a M5 cooling mist nozzle. Works good!

So if you used the window washer tank you would be solid then.

[woltegsrt4]

yup, if you are only using one nozzle at the UPP higher than the bulkhead fitting!
