Intercooler spray device
So, my friend has a pretty good condition CRX he and I are turboing. Got most of the hardware, think we know what we're doing, etc. Anyway, I just was reading about the WRX STi, and about how it has a button to spray water on the intercooler to cool it off a little.
I was considering making a device to do this- just one of the pumps/sprayers like the windshield wipers use, with a spray nozzle mounted under the bumper, and a button on the dash to activate it. This might be able to chill out the intercooler a little bit, and add a few horsies. If nothing else, it's cool.
Anyone every tried this before? any thoughts on it?

exactly^^ some water sprayed through a windshield wiper squirter would be pointless and would make no difference, unless of course the windshield squirter you're using has an led light, now that's a different story, then you're going to have to worry about traction though, b/c that will be about 100 extra hp

make a NO2 spray setup, get yourself a bottle, some line, a solenoid, and a piece of conduit, weld a tee in the middle of the conduit, drill the neccessary holes, and weld both ends. then hook up a switch, and not only will it work better then the rest of that stuff, if you mount/build it creatively, it'll be invisible too
