look for the outdoor mister nozzles. I think they were in the plumbing or garden section.
The Lowes in Phoenix had em. The nozzles were like 2 bucks each.

Don't dooooo it. Intercooler spray's don't work and aren't worth the money. Even if you spray alcohol which evaporates faster, it's not worth it at all.

That's right. Water absorbs and dissipates heat ten times faster than air. Obviously a waste of time!

I've seen articles that prove it's a waste of time. Have you ever tried it? I don't think so if you think it's so great.

Have you ever tried it either? No, you read an article.

I'm sure its efficiency depends on the situation it's being used in and it's not as cut-n-dry as "it just doesn't work".

Who needs to try it when it's all been tried?

you could get a paintball gun co2 bottle and mist ice cold co2, that would work

Interesting, but I call BS, He used 1 misting bottle, with one nozzle, enough water to do ----, if you had lets say 6 nozzles, high output pressure from the pump and was misting your intercooler that way, i'm sure it would make more than a 4.7% drop in temperature.

And if I'm wrong then there is always water injection O0
