Default HOW MUCH TO PAY FOR AN I/C SPRAY

How much should i expect to pay for a second hand intercooler spray system for a newage? Mines a 2002 WRX.

Are they worthwhile or just for show?

some pics of people systems would also be useful as it looks like there are 2 versions for newages, both boot mounted but one goes under the rear shelf and the other looks like it's hiden under a flap in the boot carpet?

they do work. if you had a temperature guage in the IC you'd be amazed how hot it gets when stuck in traffic. when waiting to go down the strip at the pod mine was in excess of 70 degrees C. not ideal for a spirited start

And what difference does it make......and when in traffic have you got to push the button every two minutes because a whiff of water wont last long on hot metal..

Personally I don't see the benefit with road cars.
Mine is a newage STI and when flying through the gears its the last thing on my mind.
If the switch could be mounted on the gear **** then that could be useful.
