I just wanted to know if anyone is running both. I just wanted to know were they spray the nos to. A friend of mine told me to spray it into the intercooler. If I do that were? Were is the beat place to put the nos nozzle to?

If you're gonna use nitrous for the intercooler, it would be a lot cheaper to use water. You can either spray water/nitrous in front of the intercooler. A cool more efficient way of cooling pressurized boost is injecting nitrous into the intake piping of the intercooler. You can also use nitrous to help spool them big bad turbos and reduce lag significantly. Or go all out and use a direct port system, run it like you would any motor and then hook up a dual stage setup and when things need to get "fast and furious" you got two buttons to get you to warp speed!

makes some thing cool now that is a co2 foger that goes in front of your intercooler and makes it real cool .. uh they said on the webpage that the civic they tryed it on gained 50 whp on a dyno not to bad...

What a waste of nitrous. Just spray water on the IC if your going to blow something on the outside.

You'll get like three passes from a full bottle if that.

Spray the juice IN the motor. Only riceboys spray it on the intercooler. ;)

Just a note here:

The two tracks I hang out at have a hard time with spraying water on the outside of the intercooler, then running down the track. They don't like the trails of water left all the way down the track, and I can say I don't blame them.

So, we've used my nitrous (once I was out of eliminations) to cool an intercooler before.

Point?

You may run into a track where spraying water isn't allowed.

ya, spray it in the engine, it will be more effective, and it will still cool it down, I dare you to stick your hand in a stream of nitrous :D cold cold cold cold and will freeze your hand.

Someone mentioned to me the other day of a trick they used to do last year at the track. Theyd take a can of the new freon, not old, and coat their intercooler right before the run as well as wrapping a bag of ice around it. Kind of crazy if you ask me! :D

Well it would be worth a try considering r134 is pretty accesible and has the same benefits as spraying nitrous on the intercooler does as well.

ive seen dry-ice on a TMIC, as well as an upside down can of endust/air in a can on a FMIC

yea i think that you did not get it . it uses co2 and sprays it on the out side of the ic just makes it real cool quickly and no watery mess

For supercharged or turbo applications where nitrous is not an option, NX offers another alternative. Tne "N-tercooler". Using either nitrous or CO2, this unit can reduce air inlet temperatures dramatically. In a recent dyno test a turbocharged Honda equipped with an NX "N-tercooler", increased its baseline by an astonishing 52 HP! If it makes horsepower it must be Nitrous Express!

it kind of sounds like the quote of a drop in K&N making 28 wheel hp (like on the commercial) ya, possible on a 110 degree day on 25 psi maybe, but on a street car, I would not, but if you have money to burn, go for it, or better yet, send it to me :)

What's to get, he *SAID* nitrous.

If your going to use Co2 to cool the IC just get a CO2 fire extinguisher. Blow down the IC before the run and there you go. No water, a deeply frozen IC and a lot of money saved.

BUT if you insist on using a "spray on demand" type system, I suppose that C02 is better than nitrous. Cheaper anyway.

But that just seems really impractical to me. You're not going to get more than 40-60 seconds of spray time with the amount you need to spray for it to be really effective.

I was checking out the CO2 system to be sprayed on the intercooler a couple of years ago. For a drag race situtation, you would only use it for 10-12 seconds at a time. You could probably race a whole day on one bottle. It is a very cheap investment. I may still do it unless I go to an air to water system. I think to fill up a 10lb bottle is like $4. A typical NOS refill is over $40 here. Hell, for that price I can buy two full bottles with one for a back up.
