My first post got lost somewhere as usual, so I'll comment again on how I used a mister at the air entrance to the top shroud to lower cylinder head temps while the turbo was on extended boost. This was used in conjunction with water injection. Both were very effective until I ran out of water and grenaded the engine.
this process is used extensively on Reno air racers, both water and air cooled versions. The sprayer bars are used in front of the intercoolers and radiators as well as the oil coolers.
