Bored? Lets be bored together. Intercooler sprayer
I dont have any windshield wiper sprayer things anymore (due to a carbon hood) so I thought I would make SOME use out of them.
Take bumber off...nice smile considering what its been though, huh?
I ran the line from the water pump (for the front sprayers) behind the intercooler. I needed to drill out a hole to navigate the nylon tubing though.
I then secured the stock window wiper sprayer with LOTS of zip ties. I went a lil crazy with them, but I wanted to make sure it stayed aimed in the right direction.
The next step I do not have a picture of (yet). I am going to take an RPM switch, or pressure switch, and make the pump in the resovior activate at a certain RPM. For now, its just hooked up like they are normal sprayers.
keep in mind...you must route the line above the water pump, or else the water will drain itself. I didnt think this would happen, but when I was playing around with it...I left the line on the ground and it drained itself.
Hope you like it...might help a little....maybe

Yeah, just looked at it.. they look nice. I'm still waiting on my flanges to come in from Revhard. They suck on getting **** sent out quickly. Going to call them tomorrow. Let me know when you get the head back on.

Get a nitrous bottle, 14ft 4-AN line with fittings, and a purge valve. Fill the nitrous bottle with co2

You could try to find some old used co2 type fire extinguishers. Might be cheaper than n2o bottles.
Be careful about the water dripping. You wouldnt want your rear tires catching any of that and losing traction in the middle of a turn. It's probably a better idea to use a high pressure pump with nozzles that can spray a finer pattern. It'd be more dollars, but you'de get no big droplets.

Re: Bored? Lets be bored together. Intercooler sprayer (mos)
I would have used nozzles that atomize the water a little more, but hey - different strokes for different folks.
