The other issue is trying to understand how air flows over your intercooler with the mounting you have. Does air flow from the top to the bottom or bottom to top? You want the misting spray right before the air flow going into the intercooler. If it flows from bottom to top, then you're out of luck as you don't want spray nozzles hanging underneath your car, close to the ground. They'd get yanked off by rough roads in no time...
And we do have some rough roads. Turbowerx is working on a scoop to go under the car, but as you said my car is low, The intercooler is about 4 inches off of the ground. SOOO a scoop, spray or any other additional cooling means may not be feasible.

I am open to other ideas, but I have come to the conclusion I may not need anything more than the scoop. Even though it will be a low profile scoop.
