Message I have the z1 intercoolers with stock turbos and stock injectors on 14psi...

I went an dynoed the car today an realized I was loosing a lot of power/
boost cause the intercoolers got rediculously hot with 30min of highway
driving and 1 dyno pull.

I got 315rwhp on first pull. 294rwhp on second pull I thought that was
low and I felt the intercoolers. I let them cool down and put a bag of ice
on each intercooler. I dynoed 325rwhp with 348 torque...

My question is what can I put on the intercoolers to keep them cool?

I was told just get a nitrous kit and put the nozzles facing the
intercoolers. I know that would make them freeze and I would use just
about no nitrous and be fine. Would I be better off spraying inside the
intercoolers or ontop of them?

I know this shouldn't be a problem with such low power and boost but
the intercoolers are just getting way to hot an affecting performance. I
could only immagine when I install my injectors and gt675rs.
