Aquamist are certainly up there with the best - they make the systems for most of the WRC cars.
I've had their kits on a couple of cars now and plan on fitting one to my GT-FOUR and my Rover rally car. You can buy parts now which will reduce boost etc when the water runs out so you virtually eliminate the chances of detonating the engine if it is relying on the H2O. Out of interest, why do you want to run WI?

I have also read that adding water injection to a car that is not having detonation issues and leaving the tune alone will actually lower power output at the same boost levels.
