This thread just reminded me that it was there...so I guess you could say I don't use it.

I would use it if it was more practical. Holding down the "manual" button is really not an option when you're entering corner 1 at Mont-Tremblant at 100 mph. It would be much better to make "manual" a toggle switch that you could leave on for as long as you need. I've tried sticking it in "auto" on the track but it doesn't seem to do anything.

Does anyone know how it's tiggered in auto mode?

But what is it based on? Intake air temp? Oil temp? Just a simple timer? Does anyone know?

I'm planning to removing mine since I have a Gialla bumper and don't use the waterspray.

My friend removed his water spray and nothing happen, just unplug and unbolt everything and use the space for something else
