Anyone done this or thought about it?

SignUp Now!Rick, what are your temps before the alky at full boost in high gear? Mine are 142* on a hot day(85*) at 29psi.
A few at the aquamist forum have done this. You should stay small on your pre-IC nozzle. m1 or 2
If I still had my FMIC I'd have added a 3rd nozzle Pre-IC. The tricky part is calculating the nozzle size and after seeing a few tests of this it appears as if there isn't a % that's a one size fits all. I'd personally have started with a nozzle 25% of total flow and assumed it wouldn't have puddled and helped the FMIC drop this lower temp closer to ambient. It's a great idea because it will allow the Intercooler core to work more efficiently, which is why adding Pre-Turbo would be the icing on the compressor cake. :biggrin:
If I was worried about core erosion I'd have purchased a 2nd system and ran Water Injection to ease the mind and help lower temps more since it's latent heat is better at this smaller nozzle size.
