I have no dyno info on this but have dropped my et by 1.5 tenths by using it. I have a home made unit that was sponsored to me by Mike Kline. I was on a 12.50 dial in and broke out after using it in the 3rd round at Lapeer drayway. Temp out side that day was about 80 deg.

does anyone have dyno results with this,or any results
I just got it installed and dyno tuned. No track times yet, and am waiting to put up a nice informative thread on it. There's a little more tuning left, but let's just say...
WOW!
It even impressed Bob Stiegemeier

Since so many have asked I put a quick version together...
What Mike K did was get a fuel cell that had 2 portholes that have the locking cap. He drilled 2, ½" holes at one end of it and a third hole for a drain.
He then took some ½" copper tubing and coiled it up in side. He did that so the ice would not directly mix with the inner cooler fluid but the coils will run through the ice water thus cooling the inner cooler fluid.
He used compression style fitting for the 1/2" copper hose to go through. The third hole we put a small ball valve to be able to drain the melted ice water out of.
After just 1 run the ice is almost totally melted. I can almost put 1 bag of ice in mine for each run.
The times where it doesn't help is if the track hot laps you then you don't have time to drain and then load your ice.
If you have any more questions post here and I can answer you. I will get some pic of it this weekend and post them monday. I will also post a pic of the inside of cooler.

i am working on something similar, but i made the box out of fiberglass, and used 25' or 5/8" copper tubing.
suavy, do you know where he found the large drain? the only valve i could find that was not just huge is pretty small.
