Intercooler water spray...

Ask for help with doing something on your car here.

I've used both types of set ups and manual switch is not the way to go. Perhaps if you are into the drags, but not if you are a driver.

Boost pressure activated is far superior and you don't go through as much water as you'd expect, even on a race track.

Nothing beats ice on the intercooler though. :D

But isn't it too late if it's boost activated? That, and you'd be out of water in no time... :P

Do you have any pics of this setup, particularly the mounting of the spec c tank?

Awesome. Thanks for the links.

Question though, how do you refill the tank?

Cool.

I take it that the tank mounts onto factory mounts?

Also, do you have water spraying onto your radiator as well?
