    CAI w/o cold air(?)

    has anyone tried freezing their filter or putting a bag of ice on their intake manifold before a race? hehe

    you are a crazy lil bastard arent you? heheheh. MIke (a20a1) was dreaming about liquid nitrogen. the air that goes into the manifold must be cold. not the throttle body. cause hot air and cold throttle body is aint gonna do any good.

    Actually, bags of ice are a common sight on the racing circuit, especially on turbocharged vehicles.

    Actually alot of people do that at the track to cool their intake manifold.

    It looks like all the cars have aches with all the bags of ice on the engines.:lol
