Look HERE http://www.stylinconcepts.com/parts....tfamilyid/1160

Wonder what the HP gains are? Sounds like the AC thing in the Gen III trucks.

NX already makes an intercooler kit. Wonder if it would work on our aftercooler?

i think hes talking about the air intake kit.

Looks interesting, but kind of pricey cause I think you have to buy the tank and wiring, which is $299. and then the air intake kit which is $139.

The tank, install kit, and 16"x5" intercooler sprayer would come out to about $390. May be just as good, or better, upgrade then the fluidyne at a cheaper price.

It would work bitchen if we had an air to air intercooler. Unfortunately, that isnt the case. Jury is still out and i dont know of anyone who has bit the bullet and ordered one of these kits. I wrote them an email to see if they would be willing to give one of those kits away and use it on a Lightning for track testing. Needless to say, they werent interested in real world results

just made my own intercooler sprayer, will be testing
after maple Grove.

will post results beginning of July.

Should be worth about 2 tenths, and 2 mph...I'm hoping.

I saw a Subaru at our local track go 13.00 with a spraybar
mounted on his bigger intercooler.

I plan on doing my burnout, and then fogging the hell out of
the intercooler for about 10 full seconds prior to staging.

will let you know.

it works great on subarus because of their air to air. like **** said though our is air to water, you would probably have to fog it a lot longer then just 10 secs to lower the fluid temp to make a difference. but the fuel cooler idea seems pretty neato
