NX N-Tercooler Chiller
Thanks for clarifying Dan. Can someone find Mr. Buschurs complete testing on a DSM were he built a cardboard box to make sure none of the N20 got into the intake and saw no gain and also were he used to freeze ICs in the box before a 1320 pass seeing no gains. He posted it a thread similar to this, we agree with him
10 deg drop in temp = 1% increase in power
On a 275 WHP car to get 50 WHP (70 BHP) by cooling your intake temp you would have to lose 200 degrees from your inlet temps. Even if the sprayer could cool the intercooler 200 degrees, that would not cool the air 200 degrees. You still have to deal with efficiency properties of the intercooler, which are not perfect and linear.
In conclusion, as I stated initially, no way dude.

if you have a crappy IC and upgrade it with one that is more efficient you make more power. why is this? it is because you are decreasing intake temperatures, which means denser air and therefore more power. so if changing IC's drops temps and adds power, why wouldnt somthing that drastically cools your IC?

Check out system and view dyno chart.
Seems like an incredibly inexpensive way to make alot of short term HP. If it really works I don't understand why others are not all over this mod.

Guys, I tested this setup out very recently. We ran a car that had a good sized front-mount and used CO2. The way the intake was done there was no chance of CO2 entering the engine. Anyways, the results.... NONE! That's right..if I showed you the dyno graphs you could not tell the difference between the runs because they lay right over each other. We did these tests back to back run after run to verify results. The only time I ever saw a difference in HP was when we did our own little sprayer about 3 years ago. We run a FWD 1G on the dyno with a stock (very small) intercooler. It was heat soaked on the dyno and we blasted it with nitrous right out of the bottle for about 20 seconds. The things was completly frozen over and we did a run immediately. We gained about 18hp out of it. Again this was on a small heat-soaked 1G intercooler (8"x8"x2") and we sprayed a ton of nitrous on it.
