intercooler water spray
need advice what water should i be putting in the intercooler water spray tank ?:wonder: also when &why should i be useing this system ?

I just put plain old water in mine straight from the tap.Its to cool down the intercooler after youve been sitting in traffic(heatsoak).Rarely use mine.If youve been sitting for a while and what to drive flat out straight away then a squirt of water doesnt hurt,If your just gonna drive away normally then no real need to touch it as the air flow will soon cool the inter cooler.

I also read the pure water thing,It only sprays water on to the intercooler. 'pure' water has no more cooling than tap that i know off?I think its to stop rusting but then rain water isnt pure.I've been putting tap in mine for 2 years now and had no problems |
De ionised water is best as you dont get the white deposit buildup from the chlorine in the water which reacts to your alloy intercooler, you can use the water from a dehumidifier or the likes.
