It's just touching the front face of the IC then? Not inside the intercooler? If it's just on the outside then it shouldn't be a big deal, it might cool the IC down a little but I wouldn't count on it a whole lot. I was worried if it was inside the IC in huge amounts that it would end up in your throttle body, etc..

ppl i think he is just talking about water on the fins...not actually water being added to the air going the the manifold...which would not be a good thing..
that's the wrong kind of water injection

This is no different then a FMIC which will be getting sprayed with water anytime you drive in the rain. It should not be a big deal as long as you don't run a garden hose up to it or something. Rain water can't be that bad unless it's a flood. How is your duct any different than the stock duct? Is it larger or does it go out a different location or what?

A friend of mine has a water spray for his 180SX. It turns on when his intake temps reach above 70 degrees and when the injectors are firing.
