Question Automatic I/C.......for STi8 ?

Guys do any of you know whether anybody has come up with an automatic I/C spray mechanism, rather than fiddle about with pushing the button ?
The car in question is a STi 8

Yes,

The one discussed here looks about the smartest of them. The article contains some interesting info about what your intercooler is actually doing too.
You can buy the set up they came up with complete or as a kit.

Subaru do a very nice one
Not sure what it would take to fit one to your car though, could be worth looking into?

p1doc, I phoned Wilsons this morning and gave them the part no......but they said it did not exsist on their data base? it might be for a import? Do I have I got the right part no? or will I have to get it direct from Japan?

p1doc, thank you for this reply, at least I know they make something,just trying to track the part down now.

This is a conversion I am doing to my wrx bugeye using the sti7/8 switchgear I was looking for a cheap way to fire the switch power to the intercooler spray pump for approximatly 3.5 seconds without having to keep my finger on the button and have been to my local auto electritians who have come up with a timed relay which will do the job all for the vast cost of £8.50 if your intrested I will find out the part number and let you know when I pick it up next week.
