Yeah there's a couple of ways. Usually with a/a setups they spray the intercooler on the inside with a tapped fitting (could also tap the hose pre-intercooler but iffy idea). Usually the fitting is built into the intercooler. For liquid intercooled your going to have to do it externally which is done 2 ways. 1: you buy a "plate" that goes over the front of the intercooler, looks like a snake and has multiple outlets to spray more surface. 2: you use some sort of nozzle or series of nozzles to spray the fins.

On our cars (2.0) this is sort of a problem because you'll have to spray the radiator (intercooler is behind the radiator) but the same air cooled by the cryo kit will eventually reach the intercooler it will just be "less cool" after cooling the liquid in the intercooler. If you have an aftermarket intercooler in front of the radiator you can spray that but the same rules apply.

I think he's asking how you attach the spray bar to the intercooler.

Something like a zip tie or a bracket...there should be something in the kit he got.

They make a plastic tie for installing aftermarket fans to radiators, they would work, zipties would work too, just thread them through the fins on the h/e and tie them around the spray bar.

Or just sell the bar to me
