Only thing ive ever heard people doing, I havnt done it myself...  But they clean there intercooler with gasoline...     Maybe someone else has done this around here, but thats the only thing ive heard it being cleaned with..

i personally dont think i wouldnt do it, but thats just me, i would run some 50% rubbinb alcohol and 50% water mix through it

No,  but for cleaning, the grade does  not matter.  Even if the gas didn't evaporate and it found it's way into the intake, that tiny amount won't hurt, so, any grade will work.
