Message	intercooler, that is one thing. The cooling will be spread over a relatively smaller surface area of your intercooler and the gains will be comparatively modest. To take a bottle of Nitrous, and directly freeze the whole intercooler is a different animal altogether. The gains will be huge and will not be something you could duplicate 'on the street'. The gains would be artificially high. Additionally, I have seen FMIC's get hairline cracks from hosing down the intercooler repeatedly. B.
