I've actually considered re-routing the hose for the rear window nozzle to spray either the intercooler or radiator... thoughts? I was thinking some evap cooling on hard pulls might be nice.

Turns out SARD makes something very similar to what I was thinking about. Talking with a couple co-workers, one recommended that I check what chemicals are in the washer fluid, if it were to contain something flammable (sometimes used in washer fluid where ice can be a problem), you certainly wouldn't want to spray it on a hot radiator...

Was more a cooling goal for me, not necessarily power. I've got a water meth injection on the shopping list for the power. Occasionally though, we use my car to tow, and it can get a bit warm when doing so. Stopping for a bit and spraying water on the front of the condenser dropped the water temps in a relative hurry.

Now, before anyone points out that having a huge radiator without a huge fan is my real issue here, I'm only looking for a little help on the occasion when she does want to run a bit warm on me. Normal temps rarely exceed 220°F unless I'm either towing or really pulling hard in hot weather. :)
