Uhh... Nitrous helps the burning of o2 and fuel

Co2 will just displace o2 and hurt performance -

Co2 doesnt add o2 to combustion like Nos does

Would likley richen the mixture - IF the engine stayed running

it has got to make a huge difference on air inlet temp
Prob good for few tenth's too

CO2= carbon dioxide... not good for engine performance..
O2= oxygen... good for engine performance. (and your lungs too!)

Thanks Doug + Tech

I guess spraying the co2 in the air box is a bad idea
NEVER MIND

I do think a co2 cooler IN THE CORRECT SPOT would be a great mod.
Maybe a mini manifold to surround the air filter would do it ???
Or some kind of manifold surrounding our upper manifold ???
Or the best spot would be surrounding the actual Intercooler, under the manifold and S/C
