Genuine STi nozzles at about £7.50
Could get them cheaper of you buy bulk
I may know of another place with them cheaper yet

OK finally got some pics. I'm quite happy with the performance of these jets, seems to cover the I/C quite well and the mist seems to be fine enough. Whether they're as fine as the STi jets I don't know but probably not considering the STi ones are designed for one purpose and have a price to match
Regardless I think the main benefit of waterspray is cooling the I/C when suffering from heat soak and in this case it can only help.
First is the piping, standard windscreen washer pipes mate up to the jets nicely, just make sure everything is really tight or the pipes might come off due to the higher pressure. Piping is a bit messy but wanted plenty spare to make adjustments - I'll tidy that up now I know everything works OK.
And the jets themselves - quite hard to see (although the millions of bits of dust seem to be quite obvious!) but they're circled red. Took a bit of time to get them positioned right, it helps to angle them down say 30deg otherwise a lot of water hits the rubber thing at the back of the scoop. Also angle them inwards a fair bit cos these jets have a wide spray angle so you don't want loads of water hitting the sides of the scoop. It's quite handy that the nozzles can be rotated after the jets are glued in place.
