My Evo used to have intercooler sprayers! I like where your going with this.
The HPS charge pipes already have the bung for meth injection, and using the windshield washer reservoir is a common stealth install. I only have access to 91 in CA, so I am considering it once I swap turbos.

I tried the washer again today. It's reasonable for the driver's side, but the passenger wiper doesn't spray fluid on the down stroke, (neither does driver side so it's basically spraying on the way up and not quite doing a good enough job. I tried just letting it spray the whole time and it wouldn't do it, just on the upstroke. weird...
Same. I have never needed to use the wiper fluid until today and noticed the first time it was just spraying it where it wiped, when holding the sprayer longer it sprayed up on the driver side only. weird but it sprayed enough to get the job done.

Yeah winter time with salt is a nightmare. It sprays poorly, shmears the salt, and takes constant spraying and wiping to maintain tolerable visibility. Even more fun is the tiny washer tank, which in winter is good for one 30 min drive. I carry a set of mf rags, canned ammonia, and a spare gallon of fluid. It's one of the things that makes the car a short trip car and not a "road trip" car.

I've been meaning to make time to pull the nozzles off and see if I can swap or modify them to be actual spray nozzles rather than just drippers. Part of the issue is the water seems to flow after the wiper starts to move... Even more value obd eleven could add if they/acura would work together.
