i was actually just looking at them. im assuming that that is not an actual pic of the spings based on the shape of them? why would the sport ones be so much more than the comp. ones?

would the sport ones have a lower spring rate makin the ride quality better and handleing a little on the worse side possibly?

Well, gonna try to wrap up all the friggin s**t I tore apart today.. Aquamist installations are ballhuggers.. I had to move my Hella air horns for the pump to have a home, so I had to remove the bumper, and relocated the horns down my the WW reservour..
So now, I need room for my Aquamist reservour... Hmm.. doesn't really fit anywhere.. So I take the battery out, the W/I Res. looks like it'll fit there... have to shave off these plastic tabs first.. Yeah, it fits.. now, where am I gonna put the battery?? Off to the store, I go.. Pick up a bbattery box, 4g cable, fuseblocks, distribution block, battery terminals.... fishing the 4g cable through the pass. side firewall area too literally an hour, just to get it down behind the AC box.. :!:
So the battery is back in, the reservour is located/mounted.. Now I need to finish mounting the pump assembly, then wire the damned thing up.. AND.. still have to drill/tap the hole in the intercooler tubing for the waterjet.. AND run all the plumbing.. Arg....

its for water/methanol injection. it is boost-activated.. It injects water/methanol 50/50 mix into the intake at a preset boost level. Eliminates detonation, allows you to add more timing, more boost, and has the added benefit of "steam-cleaning" the combustion chambers
