    Does anyone know how to relocate the rear windshield sprayer to an intercooler sprayer? If you have it done what steps did you go through to make it work? Any advice or alternatives is welcome.

    Besides the mess it makes under you hood it is not worth even doing. Just get a meth kit for cooling after the I/C.

    Meth does a car gooooooood.

    Suggestions on a meth kit where I might purchase one? Also is it really that beneficial for me? I have a 15% pulley, alta CAI, magnaflow cat-back, and poly lower engine mount. I'm not tuned... Yet.

    Yes it worth it even without your car being tuned. It keeps the air cool and everything clean.

    You can order one from the owner of the company Jeff Howerton. I put a link to his site below.

    I am running the HFS 6 but you won't see it listed because it is an older system. I have been running it for over 3+ years. Jeff is always making upgrades to his systems and stands behind them with excellent customer service if you ever have questions or need anything.

    How often do you have to refill the tanks -- I am sure it is related to driving conditions -- but say a daily spirited driver?
