How many have y'all have personal experience with it or what have y'all heard about their meth kits. I got a Collingmist Vari-Cool 1.5 Gallon Trunk mount Kit (used) and debating (Meth kit horror stories pwn me).

Cooling Mist does not work well at all.

AquaMist is where it's at but it is pricey but you get what you pay for ;)

I have the SMC kit and have had my fair share of pump issues but Steve @ SMC has revised the pumps several times with my help. This last go around seems to be the ticket. I was blowing seals every 2 months. This last revision to the seals was a big one and the pump is holding rock steady for 15 months now. And if you know me, I use a lot of meth so the kit is being used all the time (several times a day).

I have never had a problem with a coolingmist kit that I installed, I've had two of them on my cars and have helped install a bunch. Its a shurflo pump just like everyone elses.

With the aquamist I'm not sure if its setup to spray 100 percent meth so you might want to check that first.

Cooling Mist kits are a finicky pain to tune. Coming straight from the tuners themselves when I was asking about them vs the SMC when I bought my kit.

One advantage to the cooling mist is they are right here in Atlanta, so if anything goes wrong, you can show up at their front door :)

Not all tuners think they are hard to tune, they have lots of nice options, you can really dial in the delivery with their controller.
