Anyone tried it? I heard it makes your car goes faster...anyone have experience with dry ice before? Does it really work?

 

It's gonna get sucked into the motor, no?

I've heard of people putting dry ice on their intercoolers, but not in the intake.

 

it makes sense, but ridinlow is right, wouldnt want it goin in the throttle body

if you have a short ram, and put it right by the filter, that might work...

 

Anyone know the scientific name for dry ice, I mean what it is actually made of? Mabey throwing a block of it on your manifold before a race might be a benifit to you but I dont know.

 

dry ice is carbon w/ something or the other... could even be carbon dioxide.

 

dry ice in the icebox would be a bad idea, i mean, cars need three basic things to run; fuel, spark and oxygen . dry ice ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide, something you dont want flowing into the cylindrs. if you were to put dry ice in the intake the engine would run like crap, if at all.

 

good call, braian didnt think of that

 

However say you're doing some runs or something, you could stuff a bag of dry ice on top of your engine block to try and lower the temperature? I suppose that could work.

 

but wouldn't that also have the same effect as in the morning when you start up your car?

 

COLD air is better. what do u think the box is for in the comptech ICEBOX. u ever hear ppl icind down their intakes before a run? well comptech makes it easy. u drop in ice. whatever melts drips out the extension where cold air is drawn into the filter in the box.

 

how about a small freezer and a fan in front of the freezer ???

 

I unplug my air conditioner hose and route it directly to my intake, then I set it on 60 degrees.

 

or you could take your "tornado turbo fan" system and blow it right in there
