Just thought I'd give my 2P worth on this.
I think back in the early 2000's I was one of the first to run an aqua mist system on the G40 and had many an argument about its effectiveness etc.

I did used to run a methanol mixture in mine most of the time which did make a huge difference. It has become rather pricey in the few years since I bought a kit so can see why it is less likely to attract buyers.
NOS and Aquamist are two different things I hope you are aware, one is more about preservation of an engine and engine running temps and the other well kind of does the opposite :-)

I used to run my mist in the boost pipes before the temp sensor so it would cool the air on it's way into the manifold rather than having it directly into the inlet which I also believe made a difference.

Only thing I will leave you with is this, when I had my last engine it was running about 165-170 BHP on 1272cc standard block and I always ran a jabba sport chip with standard injectors so some would question how I never melted a piston? I watched at least six of my mates melt their G40 pistons in this time and my engine was solid, maybe I had the mist to thank for this? who knows.

Anyway Mist I'd say is essential for any high powered charged engine which is being asked to go over and above the normal working parameters (most G40 standard blocks over 150 BHP).
