Someone called my attention today that I have a $500 CryO2 Intercooler Sprayer setup which I can use to cool down the charged air passing the intercooler .. .... And I was selling the thing only for $100 .. lol...well I didn't know, it came with a bunch of stuff I bought as a lot. The funny thing is the item is posted for sale on SF and on this forum but a dude on SF pmed me and asked me why am I selling a $500 intercooler sprayer setup for $100 ? .. he said I might as well use it in my cars.



I guess my ignorance made me think that it was a nitrous setup which I know nothing about so I was willing to sell it that cheap. Thanks buddy for educating me and you know who you are. After looking closely , the loop actually has very tiny holes where the sprayed liquid goes out and into the intercooler .. ... I guess I have lots of things to learn . So I might as well set this up with my intercooler eventually . Got to do a lot of researching and learning about it. Is this sprayer loop set infront or behind the intercooler ?

Thank you sir . I guess this thing will help a lot in cooling the charged air and even the engine itself . Am glad someone called my attention about it.

Now it's clearer to me why the braided line also is so long .. so I can install the 10lbs bottle liquid C02 in the trunk and just activate the solenoid with a switch to spray it into the intercooler... hhhmmm.

A buddy of mine who is out of work voluntered to help me in my SC project to keep himself busy. But I am telling you , hard to leave a damn car fanatic alone especially right now am out of town and he still have access to my garage and continue to work on my car. Just told him, do what he thinks will be nice for those SCs.

First today he sends me a message that my Weldon pump out of Darin's car had arrived . Though I know at this point, I don't even know if I will use it. It was an impulse buying thing...

Then he sends me this picture message and I ask .. "What about it.. thats the red dragon's door panel ?"



THEN HE SENDS ME THIS !!! The dude , always heard me say , I love the black interior and he knew that I had plans of swapping interior of both SCs. He heard me say that I might just throw in a 6 speed built 2jzgte into the Red Dragon. So he thought that am selling the other SC for sure. Thus he started tearing apart the black interior of the other SC and started the interior swap.

Don't get me wrong .. it's nice , though I have made my decision of keeping the tan interior. But now I guess no more ! And black interior not for sale too anymore . Well , he is a good friend so I will let it pass... if not , uuuuhhhhh I would have strangled him when I return... lol... Well, its my fault too, I told him to do what is nice on those two SCs while I am out.

I like tan on red more than black on red. Black goes fine with most of the rest of exterior colours though.

You are right about that . That is the reason I decided also to keep the tan on the red dragon.

But I guess I will see a black interior on the Red Dragon when I reach back my place in North GA . Looks like , it is at a point of no return since I was told that the whole black interior from the other SC had been taken out already .

Have decided that the stock sound system from the other SC be transferred on the Red Dragon .. the rear speakers of that car are in really great shape .

Decided to use an old center speaker grill but took out the cover . The side speaker grills blue cloth cover had also been taken out and decided to paint all the speaker grills with a black trim color.
