Yep, done it, it was fun...especially when we got greedy with the mix and the motor would run on :lol:

We used a snow performance stage3 kit with a 600-750ml nozzle.

Egts were managable but the temp still got up.

Just whack it on but keep the mix to 50/50 tops.

cheers smitty :D

I use the Coolingmist kit that triggers progressively on Boost and EGT. Works great and has plenty of tuning capabilities.
