water spray
a simple question when to press intercooler spray button??
|
There is no real set time. Bit of your own judgement. I usually use mine after sort of 10 minutes driving. Or if im sitting at lights etc b4 i pull away.
|
Tend to use mine if I have been stationary or moving a slow speeds for a time to get my charge temperature back down.
|
Same here, usually after traffic lights to cool it down, or just before you are going to have a play.:) Daz

Ever had one of those questions you feel to afraid to ask in case you get a red face. Well here goes, where is the water bottle for the IC spray, I have looked in the handbook but cant see it, so have never played with the button.

uk sti (newage) right side of boot........ classics IIRC are under the bonnet and spec'c's you just CANT miss........ :D:D

Use water spray on boiling hot days,,or after or in between or whenever u r kaining it... other than that never..
I dont understand what someone just said about ten minutes after driving he gives it a squirt.. bollox..:nono: |
Use it as you feel fit , it wont hurt to squirt.

here goes another silly question then
Are all subaru impreza's fitted with water spray? I have only owned my UK 2000 model for a week. I have only just found the coolant filler :) Where will the button be and the loaction of the bottle under the hood? Thanks |
Only the newage sti's and some of the import classic models have them- dont think you'd have much luck looking for one on a uk 2000- though aftermarket kits are common enough now.
Main time to use it is about 2 seconds before you boot it- main effect I gather it has is in the latent heat of vaporisation of the water covering the intercooler ie the energy thats needed to steam off the water on it. Not certain how long it lasts- but if that's the theory of it I'd be suprised if it lasts for anything more than a short period of time. |
you can get it secondhand but its hard to find, i've been searching for ages for a genuine set up and finally got one last week after putting a thread on here
|
I just leave mine on auto all the time, can't be manually squirting and driving at the same time
|
On the Bugeye STI RA its under the bonnet to the right of the I/C as you look at it. and its auto or manual. well mine has two buttons????

I don't know, but it would be really easy to wire.
2 things that i need to know before i do it. 1, Where can i mount the jet's? 2, Where can i locate the botttle? G. |
