Cool too much water coming through alky injection nozzle

well ive been messing around with a few mixtures of meth and distilled water and now ive narrowed it down to putting 3 bottles of heet (99.9% meth) and a empty heet bottle of water mixed with it into my tank and im seeing alot of water coming through the injector going into my engine, this has caused my TPS to **** up after about a half tank or so of injection used.

heres a video of what its doing, the injector placement is temp until i can figure the problem out and its now disabled so i dont **** my **** up again. anyone with a meth setup think that my m5 sized injector may be too big and thats whats letting the water come through so much and should get a m3 or so sized injector or what you think the problem could be, the waters just coming out like no tomorrow after the misting. thanks guys.

Is this an aftermarket kit or home made?

The alky kit I made for my turbo coupe used a misting nozzle from mcmastercarr.com I just used windshield washer fluid since its cheap and is mixed with alky/ water.

Do you have any type of solenoid in the water line just before the nozzle? So that you can have it turn on at a set pressure? Something like a hobbs switch?

Ive heard horror stories of guys water injection setups failing and them hydrolocking there motors, it isnt a common thing but like you said get it fixed before something bad happens.
