Default Integrale Water Spray

Just wondering if anyone knows how to activate the factory intercooler water spray fitted to the homologation Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 1's.

Im told that all you need is a relay to activate it but I dont know where it goes.

Water bag, twin pumps, water line etc all connected , just unsure bout wiring and trying to trace the wires from the boost pressure switch is a nightmare.

anyone know how effective water spray is?

there's been a post or two before, but no real answers

i guess that as major manufacturers use it (lancia/alfa/subaru) it must do something...

The standard Delta intercooler does get quite warm so any cooling help will improve things. Its a mates car and Im trying to persuade him to put a bigger front mount on it.
