Having spoken to other MR2/Spyder owners apparently it is common for intake temps without an IC to reach 100*C when cruising due to turbo/manifold temps raising the temp of the air charge and the 'rear engined' scenario
As this is only reduced by the aquamist when boosting I think I will be adding a charge cooler rather than switching the Aquamist on at cruising speeds. Monitoring water levels is already an added task without having to worry about using even more water whilst cruising. (good suggestion tho)
have had a rough quote of ?850 + vat to add a decent charge cooler (pace products) so will add this when funds allow
cheers for your help guys :-)
