FJO Water Injection Discontinued?
Looking at the FJO site I noticed that it seems the water injection has been discontinued. Also, going on other websites the links are all dead for this product save Alamo.
Anyone else heard news on this?

FYI, I just ordered the 2nd last FJO water/meth kit from Alamo Motorsports, you will no longer be able to buy the kit from FJO, discontinued. Alamo tells me everyone else out of stock, get the last one before it’s gone.

Just wanted to say I got the last 3 kits supposedly. Great service from Nahla and Jesse at Alamo.
They have other parts of the kit left over however, injectors etc etc. The kits ordered are three different 1 purely water on a 400cc 1 water on a 600cc T04R with the chance of switching to 50/50 and myself 2 times 400cc for 800cc running on 50/50 on Turblown GT35R V.
I just wanted to post I made some calculations according to Howards numbers on injector sizing and here is what I found. This is HP and duty cycle resulting on the assumed 55lbs/hr turbo.

FJO is an amazing company... they develop really good products and then have, shall i say, less expertise/interest as to selling/marketing those products.
as i understand it, their primary current work is making a particular product (Nitrous systems)for a number of companies, all of which you would recognise. so they design and make stuff and then let others "brand" it.
works for them.
let's hope someone picks up their AI product. if there were more than 24 hours in a day and if i was a few decades younger i would grab it in a second and eventually own the space.
BTW, i did purchase a couple of 1000 CC/Min FJO AI injectors a couple of months ago to increase my meth from the 2 700s i have previously run.

From what I've been told, the W/M injection kit will be on the market under the new owners and FJO will be supplying them with the parts. Which totally reinforces what Howard said

looks ver similar to a picture of the fjo solenoid i seen recently....
could just be a universal part though, im not too sure, fairly new to the AI game.

the unit you refer to on sale is Coolingmist's AI solenoid. AIUI, it is slightly upstream from a nozzle that disperses the injectant.
the FJO solenoid works differently in that it also has a built in injector. if you look at the sticky thread on my FJO system you will see the solenoid is directly screwed into my elbow.
not saying anything re either unit being better, just pointing out the difference.
