It is a good idea but I'm not sure how hot the A-W radiator gets. I'm setting up my headlight sprayers with irrigation misters and spraying on my A-A intercooler.

Many EU and AU spec S2000 come equipped with headlight washers (not windshield washers). Headlight washers work on its own pump but shares the same water tank with the windshield washer

I was thinking of using the same headlight plastic "misters" and find a way how to mount them.

With regards to the Hot A-W radiator, if the water in the washer tank is cooler then the rad, I would assume spraying would always be a + point

I'm going to have a spray bar bent from aluminium tubing and insert 360 degree misters into it. Then just connect the line from the pump to it. I will have it controlled by the sprayer switch (the dashboard mounted version) and also by a line from the AEM EMS. So it will spray automatically when I go WOT and boost is above 4psi.

Sounds like you guys are on the right track. Cooler air = more hp. Cooler air compresses easier. Thats the idea behind the aftercooler as we all know. I spent some time last year manufacturing my own nitrous and co2 kits. The use for the co2 kits was to spray on to inter/aftercoolers. co2 is around -80f when it atomizes from liquid to gas therefore making for a great way to cool off an after/intercooler. Sold around 50-60 kits before selling the company. Just submitting for consideration for you guys. Kits could be built for around 150$ and bought for around 300$.

The temperature ranges we are talking about do not affect the compressibility of air. Sorry to nitpick. The correct statement would be "cooler air is more dense."
