Question Unknown Switch

Hey guys, this might be kind of a dumb question and someone might have already posted this, but I've been looking at pics of evo's and always wondered what that switch is underneeth the hand brake is for? and is it only in JDM evo's or is it in US models as well.

That is the intercooler spray button. You can put it on auto or manually spray the intercooler with water..

It's what makes the Evo win against the STi in almost every magazine reviews.

Don't tell Subaru that though.

I think for the STI its some kind of ddc or dcc controller or whatever you call it. It transfers more power to the front/rear wheels by adjusting it.

it wets your evo down, so she's all nice and wet and hot and bothered.

My 2003 GSR has it. It has since been deleted by Mitsubishi in US Evos. Can't speak for the JDMs.
