Aquamist HFS-3 (with summer) vs. HFS-6
Hey guys,
I've been using the Aquamist 1s kit for some years now and think it's about time to step up into something a little more intelligent. I really like the Aquamist product so I plan on sticking with them.
Problem is, I'm not really sure what the main difference is between an HFS-3 and an HFS-6. I know that the summers are a hot commodity and difficult to source (but well worth it if done) however I am not sure if it would be needed with an HFS-6.
Can anybody break down the primary differences between an HFS-3 (using a Summer) and an HFS-6 in a relatively dumbed down manner?
Thanks!
Levi

The HFS-3 is an affordable entry-level system for those who wants to venture into the PWM valve concept, allowing "wide dynamic range" and "fast response to load change".
Please feel free to post questions.

- alter the failsafe reset period = pegged at 3 seconds
- read "Direct Injection" pulses such as the 335i or Audi FSI pulses
- control a MAC valve directly as with the HFS-6
The HFS-3 can:
- scale-up/down the incoming F-IDC for car with very large fuel injector that doesn't run up to 100%.
- You can run the system based on boost or IDC only. In single stage or progressive mode.
The HFS-6 is more suited for engine with large turbo with power beyond 550whp.
