Hi,

That is our stage II kit, you get 2 injectors, only run 1. A large and med. Most STIs will use the large, most wrx will use the Medium injector, but individual cars can be different.

Thanks again.

Nice countertops - Amazon Blue?

Nice to see that coolingmist gives you the nice brass fittings - way to go fosho.

Yep you got the entire kit. Its easy to install.

Does the Varicool take place of the pressure switch? Never used the control unit.

Yes, the directions are on their website if you dont have them.

Here is some details about the controller.

The state of the art Vari-Cool Controller From Coolingmist comes in several formats. Most vehicles will run our standard controller which can read 1-30 PSI. Others may have our heavy duty Vari-Cool which can read from 4-120 psi.

1-30 PSI Model Features:

Minimum Setting: This is the start boost. Set this at the PSI you want the system to start injecting. You can have the minimum setting between 1 and 30 psi.


Maximum Setting
This is the Full Flow setting. Set this to where you want the system to be at max flow. You cans et this between 1 and 30 psi.

Tune Setting: The tune setting limits the maximum flow of the injector. This is useful to dial in the exact flow you need. If you have the tune setting on 10 you will get 100% flow at full boost. If you have it on 9 you will be to approx 92%. Each level drops the flow by roughly 7.5 %.

Turning Off the Unit: If you set the Min higher than the Max setting the system will turn off and not inject.

The 1-30 psi controller can handle upto 60 psi of manifold pressure. The controller can only read up to 30, so the min and max can only be set between 1 and 30. After 30 psi the system will be on full flow.

The system will give you a variable flow output from your Min and Max settings.

4-120 PSI Model Features:

There is no physical difference between the 1-30 psi controller and the 4-120 PSI version. The only difference is the range. For vehicles running lower boost its better to run the 1-30 PSI version as the resolution of that controller is better.

Normally Aspirated Vari-Cool
Our Normally Aspirated Vari-Cool is identical to the other controllers except it runs off of vacuum instead of boost. Set the Min, Max and Tune the same as with the other models. Alternate modes for this model are also listed below.

Software
You can download our software from our website. Visit our controller software link at www.coolingmist.com for the latest software. Its important to note that this controller is designed to work right out of the box. You do not need to ever use the software. If however, you want to calibrate the controller to your specs, real time datalog, change your curves, min, max and other features you can do this with our software.

Commander Option
The Vari-Cool controller has an optional hand held commander that connects to the controller. This has the ability to datalog, show boost, egt, voltage, iat, etc. Visit us at www.coolingmist.com for this option. If you purchased the commander it will have a separate document for instructions.

Vari-Cool Controller Alternate Modes:

0-5 V input (MAF, TPS, MAP, etc)

If you prefer not to run the system using boost (or vacuum for n/a models) you can change the switch on the controller to the right position. Next to the boost/vacuum port there is a recessed switch. To run it in boost mode it must be in the LEFT position. If you prefer to run it using any device that has a 0-5 V output you must change the switch to be in the right position.

Special Control Mode
To run the system in 2 D mode you must download and install our software. You can get the software at www.coolingmist.com. You must have a windows 2000, XP, 2003 or NT system to use the software. Alternately if you have our hand held commander you will not need a computer to do this. Software instructions for 2D Special Control mode will download with the software. Under this scenerio you can do the following:

Run the system with boost as your primary input and the 0-5V and your secondary. Or as 0-5V as primary and Boost as secondary (or vacuum). Remember the 0-5V can be your MAF, TPS or any other 0-5V device. We also have several other senders that will be listed below. For example, boost is primary and TPS is secondary you can set the system to vary the flow based on boost but only when the TPS is above a certain voltage. Likewise, you can make the system vary the flow based on voltage, but only when above a certain boost (or below a certain vacuum).

We have senders that will allow the system to use Exhaust Gas Temperature or Intake Air Temperatures as an input. If you need one of these senders, contact us at www.coolingmist.com

We have different versions of controllers. Our latest at the time of this print is our Version 3 controller. This controllers led will function in several ways:

1) at system power up the LED will blink slow for a few seconds. Once it passes the test the LED will blink fast.

2) When the system sends power to the pump the LED will turn solid.

3) When the Max is lower than the MIN the led will blink fast for a few seconds, go solid for a few seconds and then go back to blinking again. This means the system is disabled.

4) When you are in configuration mode with our software (using your laptop or our pocket pc commander) the system will blink slow).

Mounting the Unit[b]
It is critical to mount the unit in the cockpit of the car and not in the engine bay. The system has computer chip and is heat sensitive. The base of the unit has an area where you can use screws to bolt the controller down. As an alternative you can use Velcro. Make sure the unit does not move around and is secured.

[b]WIRING THE UNIT:

The most important part for longevity of the Vari-Cool Controller is proper wiring.

Step 1: hook the black wire from the pump to the green wire on the controller

Step 2: hook the red wire from the pump to the red wire on the controller.

Step 3: hook the thick black wire from the controller to a GOOD CHASSIS ground. DO NOT HOOK THIS WIRE TO THE BATTERY GROUND. The most important part of the installation is to make sure you hook to a very good chassis ground.

Step 4: Hook the orange wire to your vehicles switched ignition wire.

Using Boost To Vary the flow:

Run a vacuum line to the controller port.

Using a 0-5 V input such as TPS or MAF:

Hook the blue wire to the signal wire from your MAF/TPS or MAP. This is the wire that gives you a 0-5V output. Ground the small black wire. Change the recessed switch to the right position (this is the switch next to the boost port).

Ah, okay. I didn't know if I was supposed to use both nozzles :lol:

Yeap, it's Amazon Blue, and thanks :)

Mounted cotrollers, looks a lot cleaner in person

very clean, Jay-R! is that an intake temp gauge in the molded pod?

No, the IPOD has all of that data, it is a Alky Temp guage to monitor my alky tank temps.
Thanks, everyone that has seen it up close at meets likes the install.

Very nice setup, everything in reach. The Commander/IPAQ option to our kit is insane :)

You need to make room for our Smart Injection Module :)

Give me one of the partial sponsorhip deals and I can make as much room as you like.:lol: :banana:

I believe I can fit one more item in under the plate. If I recalled it is just a modual that doesnt display anything right? Are they out yet.

I also wish the wires could exit out the back or bottom of the commander, have you guys cotimplated redesigning the controller so that all the wires are not as visible?

I am still happy with my system and everyone that see's it in person compliments me on a clean functional install. The glove box still closes, it just no longer holds gloves.

it has 4 programmable LEDs on top. When its all said and done it will have many attachments to display data including LCDs if the customer wants. The customer can use a laptop, his own pocket pc or our commander as well. Since you have a commander (IPAQ) thats all you need. They are not out yet, they are some where between Prototype and Contract Manufacturer. We expect the first release to be available in early spring.

The nice thing about it, it will work with any kit, but when used with the Vari-Cool it will have special features, due to the fact that both units will be aware of each other due to the serial interface.

We will have more data later :)

Dimensions:
1.18H x 4.27W x 3.15D

Great, maybe you would like to test it on my setup. Part of the partial sponsorship.:banana:

i'm sure you will keep me abreast of the system, you have always been great CS.

I could def fit it with thos dimentions.

We may have some opportunities for beta-testing. We may also have a pre-sale 30 days before the product will be ready. Not 100% sure yet, we have alot of work to do as its a very extensive product. We plan to make this model user flashable, so the user can upgrade to new capabilities as we program/test and finally release it.
