Search is your friend. There is a long, recent, thread about this.

Personally I like the look of the home-brewed system that Tonyboy had on his RV-3. If you don't mind building your own, it's a great system. If you want something more turnkey, then smokingairplanes is the solution you want.

I do not know what TonyBoy did but I have observed the output of several homemade systems locally. The major problem was the use of a clearly inadequate pump.

Default Smoking planes

I installed the 3.5 gallon Smoking planes system in my -4 and the same system in my friends F1 Rocket this summer..we are having a blast with them. Nice kit, simple to install, and easy to remove. You can roll your own for less $$, but it was nice to just get a box of nice stuff and be done 8 hrs. later.

If you're into DIY, here's a simple system that works every bit as good as a SA setup for a lot less money.
