has anyone tried co2 for cooling the heatexchanger

 

How exactly would your use it for that?
I have two bottles I carry on my AC truck for cleaning condeser coils.
It lasts a lot longer than the same size nitrogen bottle I have. It does ice up the bottle and hose and then you have to leave it in the sun or where it is warm to regenerate it.

It is cold though.

I suppose you could drain your antifreeze and disconect your pump and shoot it threw to atomosphere durring 1/4 mile runs and then put it back together for street use.
To much work for me.
I will wait for the ICE system like the Lightning concept truck.

 

some company makes a system that sprays co2 on the intercooler heatexchanger or you can spray in the intake air plus they make a fuel rail cooler


every thing sounds "cool" to me but i am a little concerned a bout the tune the compny is DEI engineering



you add it on much like the old school nitrous systems

you put a bottle in the bed run one hose or more
have a switch wired in and press it for a 50 degree cooler charge or more i guess

but it sounds a little to good to be true

 

I agree.

If your going to go through all that trouble might as well do the NOZ

 

nos would be great




BUT

i am sort of at the end of my horsepower rope

i would have to build my bottem end before i added nitrous
i am just looking for a cheaper way to cut a couple tenths of the time

 

WHat if someone made a tank that had the lines for the C02 to spray through. It would cool the fluid like th A/C does on the concept truck but use the C02 instead of a/c system. might work mioght not. souds like a lot of work though.

 

latemodel you got it right on DEI engineering already has it for the fuel rail

but i am still worried about the tune


last dec here in socal we had some very cold nights 28*
so i thought it would be a good time to run some times
(not)
burnt some plugs and scared the ***** out of me
so i dont want to do that again
