    that you are posting. a) I have the IC mister installed so I have an idea of what it does. b) I've taken the time to take data logs, so I have more than a perception from a butt dyno of what is going on to back up my statements. c) I've taken the time to read posts by others who have also done logged runs. d) If your car is taking 15-20 minutes to return to normal temp levels something is wrong with your car. e) I think in order for the avalon mister to empty the washer reservoir it would have to run continuously for that 10 minutes. f) If I had to chose between a system that monitors the temperature of the intercooler, injector duty cycle (how hard the car is being pushed) and uses that info to automatically regulate spraying the IC, or a system that requires me to switch the sprayer on and off when I guess it is needed, I would choose the one that operates based upon the current operating conditions, not the one that requires me to take my hands off the wheel, divert my attention from driving, and guess when operating it is going to be beneficial.
