Good or bad ideea?

I hooked up my water meth injection kit and i cant get it to spray when i want. so what i'm thinking is ditching the boost activation and just hooking it up to a full throttle switch. I'm pretty sure it will work i'm just not sure if it will be safe, what do you guys think?

Something is not hooked up right. We test every system before it ships to ensure everything is wired and working correctly. I highly doubt the boost switch is not working and something happened from the time it left us to you.

Give me a call directly at 1.801.447.2559 so we can sort this out.

We realize customer service is crucial to this industry and it's customers. Our mission isn't simply to sell you a water methanol injection "kit" leaving you holding all the parts. Our mission is to provide you with the highest quality, most effective, simple, and easy to use water methanol injection systems that are backed by informative technical support and assistance. Most of all, we really enjoy working with customers and getting them set up with a water methanol injection system and hearing the results they gained.

We appreciate everyones support. Thank you.

a boost activation switch isn't a "progressive" controller. It reads a certain boost level and then actuates the meth pump at full capacity. So technicall, he could just hook his kit up to a full throttle switch. My boost activation switch messed up as well and I hooked mine up to a full throttle switch. It's perfectly fine.

Just for clarification:

A boost activation switch is a cheap little switch that reads boost and activates pump.

A progressive controller is an expensive controller that lets you start meth at a lower level and progressively get to full injection.

A full throttle switch works as well. The boost switch's we use are quite reliable. I haven't had many problems with them at all. Was this our boost switch or another competitors?
