You can't really go off of this guy ran his for two years. A lot of how long a pump will perform is what is being pumped. Is it water, meth, mixed or some sort of boost juice product.

Could be. They back their products up with good warranty as well. Ill go with Alky or Aquamist if you dont feel comfortable with Snow's. I have a Snow kit I just havent installed yet, thats why I can only give you a idea through my buddy's experience with it.

Best is all relative to the hear say bs on most forums. I run the cooling mist setup because I am a tight wad and my cars go fast for cheap. Its under $300 on eBay. Sure, if you are wealthy and like to spend money then by all means, drop the coin on a more expensive setup.

He runned Boost Juice which is Snow's proprietary mix of 49% methanol and 51% water for a while, and he said he did see some gains but he decided to just run 100% VP Methanol for better results on 93octane. I dont know what supporting fuel system he running soo that I wouldnt know, he claimed to have gotten impressive gains. The pump is still running strong and hasnt gave him a problem. Some might think im BS but I dont lie behind the screens and make stuff up to make people believe me, im just giving honest info to help someone out.

Have a few friends that run snow and after having nozzle issues and a pump going out they all plan on switching to Alky after seeing the quality of my kit. If you plan on running 100% meth snow isn't the kit for you that's for sure. They recently had a recall issued.

For a roots style it's probably best so it won't eat up the rotors but I run 100% on my Procharger.

I used to recommend AIS (alchol injection systems) but won't any more. I've sent email and called with no response. I like their product but have been lacking on customer service as of late.

i cant say its the best kit on the market since i haven't used all of them, but so far my AEM water/meth kit has worked great and never let me down.

i purchased the AEM because of there pump. its a 200psi pump that they claim is compatible with 100% methanol, so a 50-50 mixture shouldnt be a problem. The boost sensitive controller also is nice because i can control exactly when the pump begins to turn on and when it should be at peak flow. Theres also a warning light that blinks a 'morse code' to let you know if you're low on fluid or if there is a failure in the system. Also AEM offers a lot of accessories for an additional price. Personally i'm just running the basic kit and have no regrets.

that being said, i have heard good things about aquamist.

Fair price for a good kit. My Alky kit from ECS was $600
