Hi Mate,

The IC Water spray is basically a Water Spray for the Intercooler... on hot day it can help reduce intake temperatures. Generally if your gonna put ur foot down on a hot day... press it, and then do it... should help things... but not essential.

The stalk on the speedo that says 'revs' is for the Shift light.. turn the key in the ignition to the on position... but dont start the car. Then turn the stalk left or right and watch the LCD screen in the dash to increase or decrease the 'revs' when the warning light/buzzer warns you to shift. (think it is on a x100 basis.. so 70 = 7000RPM) Now when you reach 7000RPM (or whatever you set it to.. best advised just before the red line on the speedo) it will beep at you and the light in the middle of the speedo will light up.

Hope this helps.

 

awww right that does help, so the ic spray is only really for hot days coolcool....... thanks alot

 

np.

The IC spray is for when you feel the intake temps are high (so even on a cold day.. if you have absolutely blitzed it for a bit... might be worth giving it a spray... before blitzing it again)

The bottle for this is behind a hatch in your boot... and when it needs refilling be sure to use 'distilled' water.

 

I used mine the other day

Oh remembr to use only tap water in your i/c spray.

 

Not sure who needs a 'Change Gear NOW' light but you've got one - I'd take the bulb out if I was you

The IC Spray is to boost the power enough to carry the extra water about

Both items are as useless as the CockLink which you will no doubt want to buy sooner or later

 

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Tap or distilled???

Another ScoobyNet **** conundrum

 

Is there anything wrong with spamming the water spray button? I seem to use it a fair bit, when im motorway driving etc.

 

Sorry to but in people but does anyone no where i can get some clear side reflectors the ones that are on the bugeye scoobys ?

 

Well, i would assume this is to stop you from potientially ruining the pump with hard water that is present in some areas. Not really **** is it... just taking a little care to save a little money later.

 

So is it tap or distilled water?

 

Private message: pslewis - he helped develop the Knocklink with Subaru.. and came up with the ingenious oil filter/crank sensor change technique... so im sure he can help.

 

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

IC Spray, change gear NOW lights, cocklinks, tap water, Crank Sensor disconnect, heatsoak .....

This MUST be the most **** site on the Internet

 

excellent, cheers mate !

 

what da ****

 

Generally take him with a pinch of salt mate, i can see his point on some subjects.. but my thoughts are that its better to be to careful rather than not careful enough.

Have fun, its your hard earned.

 

I been thinking about getting one of these too pslewis... what do you think?



I was thinking i could install my Knocklink and change my Oil inside it... Please let me know your thoughts.

 

LOL fair one !!!
