my thinking is you have a tank somewhere in the car wich feeds a wee pump wich squerts mist just before the inlet like nos but cools the charge temps, am i right?

it goes to brake servo m8 the only reason im saying thats it is cause it says aquamist on it m8. i'd prob be best just showing you the car m8

there is an injector driver on top of the fuse box but i think that might be for the 5th sorry m8 im not 100% on the car yet still learning bits
