the IC sprayer will increase the cooling effect to the intercooler charge and increase the time it takes to heat soak. As said above for the 05's and on the IC sprayer is not available.

I took the whole system out of my car and the weight is negligible. It weights next to nothing. Even with the bottle filled up it maybe weights 5 pounds.

I have the NX Intercooler system and I didn't really notice a difference until I reached 4th and 5th gear on a really hot day and even at that I didn't notice a big difference. It is at times good to have I guess but if you are tight on money then I would buy something that has been proven to give more HP. I do realize that you are talking about the water cooling kit but I am just try to give you my two cents.

what people do with the stock intercooler sprayer is to convert it to a methanol injection kit, if your car already has the built in ICSprayer then it won't cost much to convert it to methanol injection, but to put one in your car it costs 600 bucks... so it's not necessarily "useless"

because most new evo owners are morons and don't know what they're for and what the benefit actually is and when it's important to use it and "oh, i need to refill that bottle?"

So **** it, save how much money by removing how much hardware from how many cars? Sure, we're in the doghouse anyway, might as well save a few pennies.
