Im assuming your talking about an intercooler sprayer. I would think that it would work quite well. You see when people are drag racing that occasionally someone with CO2 fire extinguisher sprays the intercooler just before the person takes off. Driving on a cold night as opposed to a hot day is very noticeable power wise. Id like to try it and see. If you get your intake temps down to 5 or 10 degrees there would be good gains.

It depends largely on both your IC and your Turbo, as in how well they are matched. You'll see huge gains on undersized or poor effeciency IC's. Typically you'll see around 1HP for every -10*F you produce.

Actually, it's a 1% gain for each 10F degree drop. I agree that on 100 hp 4 cyl. 1%=1hp :P
