Heat - The anti power additive

Well, I was out driving my 03 MCS today and noticed that the car wasn't keeping paces like it normally does. As I knew from a few years of forced induction experience, the intercooler was probably heat soaked. I can't wait till it cools down in ol Omaha, NE. Hopefully when the money starts coming around again, I'll be able to get an intercooler sprayer and possibly an upgrade. Has anybody herd of a front mount intercooler system for the MCS? I've seen them on the twin charged or modified turbo models but never the supercharged model. Have a nice day.

Curtis
