Was just thinking....
If the nozzles were mounted before the intercooler, would the engine run cooler? For one of the motors, LLY, LB7 or something, overheating the engine was somewhat contributed to the IC heating up the radiator since its mounted in front of it. Thus all the heat dumped by the IC went into the radiator. Since I'm running electric fans that sometimes are not enough when towing 10K, I wonder if pumping in the juice before the IC would help. Just thinking out loud.

First the disclaimer. **No first hand experience**:D

I have read that post IC is better due to puddling issues pre IC. I have seen where people have experimented w/spraying directly onto the turbine wheel as air enters the turbo hoping to better atomize the mixture.

I would think that would be something like a lazer jet cutting onto the compressor wheel? Im not sure though. It sounds hard on the turbo
