Mounting location for Aquamist 1d

Since I don't run the A/C, I put the Aquamist pump on a custom bracket where the AC compressor used to be. The line feeds into a 5mm jet drilled into the Greddy pipe.



Here is another closer view:

Yes, but I don't think I'll be running them for more than 45secs to a minute (set up to spray at 8psi). The installation manual didn't seem to require installation with cool air.

Nice Spot, I've thought about doing that for my coils.

I think it would get a rather decent amount of air on it. It's not exactly in a tight spot, or behind anything. Should be enough airflow in the bay to keep it cool enough.

I mounted mine in the very front of the engine bay, as seen here:



From a different angle...

What is that thing in the line after the pump but before the nozzle? Is it a check valve?
