so drag out all those old fire extinguishers and cool those intercoolers. Liquid nitrogen (LN2) is a liquid, easy to get, and it's really cold-- 77 degrees Kelvin. Spray that on an intercooler and th

Dan, So you mean liquid N and water injection might not be the hot combo? ;-) Back on the AC option; I know it would eat hp, but I would think it could be basically a constant hp loss, but that loss

Also be careful of getting it cold enough to freeze any moisture in the air in the intercooler passages, tends to make it very limited on air flows when the engine side of the intercooler is plugged

This is a large subject! Efficiencies on intercoolers can be very high, 80% or more, but can never lower the exit air temperature less than ambient air temperature. In other words, if the air temp is

I am in agreement with Mayf, and to further his comments, you can further reduce intake temps below ambient, with water spray on an air/air charge cooler, and then using an air/ice water system. I u

according to my calculations, it might have helped for about 9 seconds (assuming 350cid, 7000rpm-- I don't know what a PRO car is). Then, you might want to think about rolling down the windows. Russ

Not quite that simple, because when you cool the air you also reduce its pressure ("ideal gas law", Pv = rT). Hugh MacInnes book Turbochargers has a good chapter on intercoolers, including how to ca
