Im driving a 4AGZE with stock top mount IC. Stock IC tends to heat up very fast and instead of changing it to FMIC (which will cost me 400-500 for piping only), i want to find another way to cool my IC. So I have this idea of using my wiper motor to spray my IC when i go drag.

Anyone have any idea on how i should do this? Thanks

i did for my car, it cools down the intercooler alot! go find some borken evo 3 bumper and get the water spray, evo 3 got 2, evo 1 and 2 only got 1 spray, buy any wiper tank with motor, and just connect it, but make sure u have a switch for it, and its better to have the on/off type rather then button. because on highway i just turn it on and boost all the way, power, amazing! u really can feel lots of diff!

EVO 3 wiper tank comes with 2 pumps. 1 for front and 1 for the rear. The one for the front have 2 nozzle. 1 for the windscreen and 1 for the IC.

Try to find a way to fit into the tank. I dunno if it's possible. Just an idea.

aside from a bit of mess, would it be better performance to substitute the water with some kinda oil/coolant?

Stunning white Aston Martin DBS Completely detailed

Hello Forumers,

It's been a very long since our last post. It has been a very busy and we hadn't had the chance to blog and share with you all our work. Yeap, the title says it all. This DBS was thrashed in the docks for a month before it was released to our client. Allow us to share with you on what we did on this monster super car.

The surrounding of the logo is filled with dirt and stains...
