I figure it won't be very long before my car is sold....perhaps next season.. So...I'm not buying radiators, high cap water pumps etc. I'm looking at low dollar solutions to the limp problem now. I feel the reality is that I can't really stop limp mode from happening, but instead need a 7 minute stop gap measure to delay limp mode so that 35 minute sessions can be completed without incident.
A buddy and I were talking about how the WRX comes stock with a water res and sprayer for the IC. I was wondering what you folks thought about going all water in the washer res, and re-routing the tubing to mist nozzles at the rad and blower heat exchanger. I could pop the wipers off and just use the res button..
My buddy had done this with a fish tank air diverter and some cheapo spray nozzles on his car with an aftermarket turbo and IC.
The more important question is if the evap of the water at the rad and HE will really help to stave off the limp or not.
