NOS intercooler Sprayer.

I know you have all seen the intercooler sprayer that NOS and NX Express have started making. I was reading in the new trubo magizine that on an 85 GN they picked up 31 hp and 43 flbs of troque. Does anyone think this would be usefull on our air to liquid setup? They took the GN and heated it up to 191 degrees and the inlet temp where something like 131 and they then sprayed the intercooler and dropped the ic temp down to like 51 degrees. What kind of effect with this setup have on our air to liquid CCHE unit underneath? I have pretty much all the compents sitting around excep the fogger bar and was going to try this out. Tell me what you guys think would happen if you sparyed the intercooler the whole length of the track? Would it do a good job of keep the liquid chilled in the intercooler system?

I didn't understand if you were asking about a2a or w2a. But for a2a I think it would be more inportant to cool the water before you make the run so you will have cold water in the intercooler during the run. A2a is pretty much what you said about the GN.

I haven't seen that setup on the GN, but they are A/A and that would make a big difference between W/A. With a W/A, the cooling effect probably wouldn't take affect till after the 1/4 unless your totally spraying the nitrous, before the run and basically chill the entire lower IC. Your best bet on a W/A is doing a setup that uses a ice/box that is plumbed into the system. This is just my opintion.

I didnt read the article but I was kind of hanging out with the guy who owns the GN in the Turbo mag. He also happens to be the editor. I went to vegas with Sean and the skylines and hung out with those guys. I didnt think about asking for our purposes :cry: Sorry. Well anyways I might be in turbo mag in a couple months. Look for an article about the "trek 2 vegas" Ill be the guy with the big red lensed sunglasses

I doubt it would be worth the investment with air to water. The spray would have to be almost on constantly to cool the liquid in the lower ic and circulate enough of the water to the upper ic to be effective at lowering the water temps quickly enough to be useful. Now air to air is a different story, since the air is being cooled directly.

I think, dual Spal puller fans, high flow pump wired to run all the time, heat jacketed upper IC, upgraded heat exchanger(s), maybe water wetter and water/alky injection is a successful receipe.

At least it works good for my setup.

Would this system damadge the engine on an A2A truck??? Or is this an Alky/propane like system???

Thanx
