First Nitrous now Co2, what next?

[q2ar13]

I recently recieved my Summit Sport Compact catalog and on page 60 I noticed a kit that contained a liquid co2 kit that freezes your fuel rail to -80F, lowers your intake temp by about 35%, and can be connected to your intercooler at the same time to cool it also. Has anyone out there heard of this kit? And, what kind of gains could be possible with a kit like this? Besides there's prolly not a law deeming this type of think illegal either.

the 1st time I heard about it was in IT. The feb mag, (it has the tricked out integra with the 240sx front end on the cover)
Its made by a company named cryofuzion.Unfortunately it doesnt go into much detail

Well as he said, there isnt much info on it... but it sounds like your gonna have a grand old time spending big bucks filling a nitrous tank, and now a co2 tank. Theres a problem with this, most places (at least here in upstate ny - obviously other areas are differant) there arent many NOS stations, I see the same thing happening with CO2, the only way to get it "cheap" would be to buy a big tank, then "mini fill" your own tank on your own. Probably get the whole tank for $150 - compared to a $30-$40 fill at a store and the tank will probably last you months :smoka:

well besides the cooling effect those two sistems have nothing in common. Sounds like this co2 system is just a veryy effective cooler wich can definatevelly help without hurting the engine.

IS IT WORTH IT UNLESS YOUR A CAR NUT OR RACE FOR MONEY??

Neutrino :What do you mean they have nothing in common?
The cryofuzion system and the one q2ar13 mentioned both run off of a co2 bottle,and are used for the same applications.

i was comparing nitrous which is a form of forced induction with that co2 system wich seems only to be a cooler.

aaa ok gotcha.
Like your sig. i was thinking of puting some speed holes in my car.

Just be careful cuz modificatons of this magnitude are normally reserved to profesionals. You might go to fast....

I don't know about you guys, but I live in nebraska and it is extremely easy to get CO2 tanks filled. There are acouple places I know of where to get it filled around where I live in Hickville. NOS is another story on it's on though, some places to do it but not as easy to find.:smoker2:

[integra818]

My question is: is this thing BS or is it for real?

[ACURA_RSX_TYPE_S]

I would say that it is for real, since you saw the kit in a summit mag. I can't believe that no one had thought of it before. CO2 would work extremely well as a way to cool an engine because it doesn't really have any drawbacks. I would imagine that you would have to be careful when using it though.

Nitrous Express makes a CO2 application.

[94civic]

one of those paintball supply stores might be able to fill the co2 bottle if they have the proper fittings(just a thought).

What about the water that is contained in CO2, i have been considering this system, but it seems to me that water would get into the engine?
