Or you could just get a bottle,,put a hose on it and spray it after a pass.
Little less expensive that way...lol

Wouldn't be doing any good after the run. Air-to-air intercoolers don't suffer from heat-soak like air-to-water setups do.

but yes you could through some chilled water on it to cool it off but this may cause it to crack, so do little bits of water at a time, not just dump a 5 gal bucket on it

id say after though cuz that is when it is the hottest and its better to get it cooled down before returning it to your system
