brake parts cleaner or gasonline. Get a spray paint bottle and a intercooler pipe and clamp them together to the intercooler so nothing can escape. fill her up with gasonline, let her sit for a bit, empty her, and look at her shine

rephrase: put an intercooler hose pipe over the intercooler inlet, clamp it, and put a spray paint bottle on the other side of the silicone hose. This way it will seal it from the bottem end. I tried some other methods like ballons and condoms, but they deteriorated in seconds. This will definently clean the **** out of it.

Water and car soap works good for me.
