Unless you need to extract 0.1% more HP from the engine, there is no need. Cool Cans are really only relevant on HiPo drag cars where a extra 25 HP on a 1500 HP vehicle can make a difference.

put a can or some type of container around the fuel-line. Within that contain you put either dry ice or regular ice to cool down the fuel. Cooler fuel=better charge. An older co-worker, muscle car freak, made them for his cars and said it made a difference. ALthough his cars were all carburated not not fuel injected the setup was easier.
