Just block it off since that sprayer is pretty much useless. Use the tank for something useful like a methanol injection kit.

The one under the hood is for the intercooler sprayer. If I was you I would finish yanking it out, its a peice of useless sales material. I filled mine up with ice cubes once, sprayed it for like 20 seconds in the staging lane, till it was all over my front bumper, and I still didnt fell any difference. Its a sales gimmick, nothing more.

Throw in an Aquamist meth/alky kit and you already have the tank for it. Nice power adder and a good use of that worthless junk that doesn't really improve performance.

all it does is reduce the effect of heat soak during prolonged high performance driving. (read lapping)

if you're a drag race guy it will have absolutely no effect in the short term.

Most tracks don't allow a system that will start putting down water all over the track so it wouldn't be possible to use it in cases like that.

P.S. Greg smells like pooooo. Oh, and if Hobbes was our governor, that would be a HUGE improvement.


Here's a link to the Aquamist website -> Aquamist and the member you want to contact on this forum is Richard L.

The other guy must of taken off his Meth kit when he sold/traded it in. I am sure you are only on 12lbs of boost to. Good luck finding out what is really done or been done to the car.

The stock sprayer system has an overflow hose that looks like it is just leaking out if you over fill the tank. Yours probably works fine.
