I thought about using c02 but then I thought about how my intake is behind the intercooler and co2 is just carbon dioxide. this whould kill power if alot got sucked up.

I think if you set it up like an air brush with a solenoid to activate it at w.o.t. it would definitly work. How well and at what loss though would be hard to say without actually doing it and writing down before and after results. I say give it a shot though. It's a sound idea.

or buy one on those universal replacement washer fluid bottles w/pump from pepzone/autoboys. i think they're pretty cheap. then buy a cheap switch, and your set.

Oh yea, a hot wire and a switch in cabin for on and off would definitly do it no doubt. People have even done it. I'm trying to keep it a LITTLE more simple. I don't want this big function/project for something that none of us really even know if it works for the hassle involved. LOL. I was thinking on more of a "mechanical/manual" aspect. I'm just about to take some hose, water, and device then try the check valve in the store. LOL. Granted, it's NOT 60psi, it's only water and if I can BLOW it out decently and not even come CLOSE to springing an internal WG at like 4psi.

All you want to do is cool down the IC a little right. Why not just use you windshield washers??
