M4 GTS Water Injection Kit

Rik84 · 05-17-2016, 01:51 PM

Well,

Incase anyone is interested. Local BMW dealer did some digging for me. There are a few M4 GTS water injection kits in stock in Germany right now. Was really considering buying one and retrofitting it into my car rather than an Aquamist kit.

The kit in total is roughly $10,000 CAD.

3 Injectors - $2,250 each
1 tank - $1,350
wiring etc - the rest of the balance of $10k.

So basically, hell to the fuck no.

What a joke

mike@x-ph.com · 05-17-2016, 02:13 PM

Would like to know how many people would actually be interested in adding it for that price

Our HEX Tuning software will eventually be be equipped to support the GTS Water Injection System through the factory ECU.

What this means in the grand scheme of things is that once development is finished, you can ignore the "wiring etc - the rest of the balance of $10K. portion of the quote.

Now that's a game changer, for roughly 4500 including hardware and tune.

I think someone did their math wrong (not the OP, I mean the others who are suggesting that saving money on the wiring is saving much)

3 x 2250= 6750
1 x 1350 = 1350

6750 + 1350 = 8100; 10000-8100 = $1900 in savings.

$8100 for a water injection kit is still insane.

I would have assumed it was an injector pack ... one pack includes 3 injectors for $2250. (which still seems high)

hahahaha crazy

That is what I assumed too

Ooooooooooooooooh you would be using logic for this!

And you unfortunately would be incorrect.

It is $2,250 per water injector for a grand total of $6,750... Where as you can get extra injectors from Aquamist for a "please include a few more injectors!" comment and about $50.

This is almost as laughable as the $72/1oz of lubricant BMW tried to sell me for my door seals...

LMAO!

Sorry, didn't notice this - not so much...

I can get a complete Aquamist HFS-4 set up for $1,024 CAD delivered to my door. It will probably just as reliable but it won't have a BMW name tag applied or a fancy tub that fits in my spare tire slot.

I really wanted that water tank though. Would have been a clean install.

Better yet, use that space for a custom made ice tank.

teefive · 05-17-2016, 06:52 PM

bargain. ill take a CCB and LED retrofit too

RSXDC5 · 05-17-2016, 07:20 PM

Just go to the Snow Performance site and buy the kit yourself!

Drive4Fun · 05-17-2016, 09:18 PM

For $2250 an injector it better be turning that water into some powerful stuff

ShlemonboostedM · 05-18-2016, 04:44 AM

This is just retarded .. Wtf is wrong with them ..

chewbakam4 · 05-18-2016, 05:27 AM

Aquamist tried tested and true. I will have it on my car as soon as PTF's OBD flasher is out to dial it in with. I've used it on my N54 and N55 with never a single issue. Why would anyone be interested in this I have no idea given costs. What would really be killer is if PTF opeed this up in their calibration so I can mess with it right from inside the ECU. Use Aquamist's hardware with factory ECU driven control. BMWs system for all I know may even be like an Aquamist one where a separate controller from the ECU is running it.

The parts guy didn't give me one. I basically gave up on exploring it after I was given the price quote. He was actually laughing as he told me.
