Default whats better water/meth injector or intercooler spray system? I plan on getting one in the near

future and I will be hooking it up to the the windsheild washer fluid tank..
my IAT's are high as crap.. and i want to lower them..

Default IC misters will help with the RECOVERY time, they *usually* don't help w/ IAT.

Have you considered lowering your boost 1psi or running better gas (higher octane)?

W/I is def. going to lower your IAT but require more tuning and tweaking to get the power.

Default Meth injection.

Water doesn't work so well.

Default Nope.

Blue stuff sucks because there isn't nearly enough methanol. Use Yellow Heet, that stuff is almost pure.

Default I've had much better results

with water injection. The IC sprayer isn't very effective. I've got both.

As far as WI goes, I would ignore anyone who tells you outright that one setup/configuration/mix is better than another. There's been zero solid testing on WI and this car, so what you end up with is one persons opinion which is in all probability based upon narrow exposure to the various possible configurations.

Default I dont have it tuned yet, but there is a switch to turn it on and off.

It kicks in when i'm hitting boost. I got mine from the shop I go to.
