water intercooler sprayer
hey who would be interested in a intercooler sprayer setup like the evo and sti come with stock. it would include an aluminum water tank and you would use the windshield washer pumps ill post pick hopefully at the end of the week.
In EXTREME circumstances this might be good but I go with chimmike on this one. Meth/H2O injection would be a better alternative and would yield a lot better cooling...I guess you could call it "more efficient"...
BUT do it and record your temps before and after under different driving conditions then post your results. Would be interesting to see them!
For more cooling but short cooling effects you could always throw some ice into the tank...Drag style

I agree with the water/methanol injection and plan to eventually go that way after I build the bottom end my engine and run a bit more boost. As far as sparying water on the intercooler, I was trying to work up some enthusiasm for that waaaaay back in 1991 with a prior turbo car. At the time, I worked part time as a 2nd job at a major turbo performance center for one of the better FI gurus on the east coast. I asked him about the spearco system for spraying water on the intercooler and he told me it'd do just as good to pi$$ on the intercooler before I made a run. ha. Dampened my enthusiasn so that I never did try it. ha.
As an ultra el cheapo alternative, I have a hand pump pressure sprayer with a large tank of ice water. I spray my intercooler down just before a qtr. mile run just to get rid of any heat soak. Not sure if it helps much. Makes me think I am doing something anyway, ha. The upside is that it costs very little. Real high tech. I keep it in the shade and add ice every once in a while to the tank, ha. Nothing but the best for the "Double Wide" racing team!
