I vote for flexibility every time.

I understand there are give and take's no matter what route you choose, but the more I learn about this system, the more I am liking it.
A few of the fail safes, that will activate the EMS to trigger either low boost, or pull timing.
They are:
Low fluid level switch
Low Flow (clog, or line breakage before the sensor)
High Flow (line break after the sensor)
Ground fault
That about covers it imo. IF anything happens. With a few other features on my EMS, like boost cut for a blown wastegate line I feel I'm pretty safe.
I'm waiting on my oil pressure sensor, and that coupled w/my other options on my serial gauge, set to alert me if there is a condition, I really think I am taking the right precautions. Of course there is always a flat out mechanical failure...that is out of my control, except for routine maintenance and prevention.
Here is a short video of how to set the failsafes.

Siadam fyi the AEM float switch doesnt work with the cmgs.
The polarity is switched. The AEM float switch is grounded when the tank is full but the CMGS is set to read ground as empty, so if you hook up the lines the low fluid fault will turn on even tho your tank is full.
I am not sure if you can rotate the float switch without causing the seal to break.. I just didnt hook up the switch at all.
Also I've completely tested the aquamist check valves in each line and it works great. Instant spray and vacuum doesnt open it. The flow is normal also.

Within reason of course.
