Autospeed Intelligent Intercooler Mister - VW 2000 GTI 1.8T


Labtronics Intelligent Intercooler Misting System

With a minor leak I decided to contact a real valve supply place for a better solution than the sprinkler ends. I came across a company (who wants to remain anonymous until they get a kit together) that was extremely knowledgeable, and knew exactly what I was doing. They came up with a completed unit. This unit had a fitting, the crack valve, and the nozzle all in one, and had a very large 3/8" hose inlet. Here it is side by side with the original spray head:

So after putting this in place, it does not leak, and sprays just as fine a mist as the other one, but flows more volume in a better pattern.



Here's some charts of some basic driving with the first nozzle. The results would be MUCH better based on wot runs through all the gears, but it gives you an idea. This is with ONE very small nozzle. All done at about 95° and with the 1.3 bar GIAC Chip


You'll see lower temps and not as drastic spikes with the mister!
THIS IS STILL IN PROGRESS, MORE DATA AND INSTALL PICS SOON!
