Just relocate your passenger side windshield washer nozzle to spray the inter-cooler.

Yeah it works but the temp drop is negligable. Also these are used on short burst runs (ie- drag) and not practical for use everyday.

I don't think he wants to leave it on all the time. Just when he wants to push it.

i would like to see something like this, but I will be going to the strip so it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep an eye on this thread

not really worth it. The boost levels a stock motor Tc really doesn't heat up the core enough to make any measurable difference. Another solution is water injection which is actually a chemical intercooler. THat does lower combustion chamber temps and increases knock threshhold.
