    Only if you're not moving and it's sealed well. Once moving the fans are just getting the way.

    if they were on the back side (bottom) it would be more efficient i would think, by pulling the air thru.

    You would probably be better off with some sort of an intercooler sprayer.

    ^^ agreed

    I want one of those CO2 IC sprayers like they put on the 350Z on the show "fined tuned".

    That's a good example of drunken engineering.

    I was planning on getting one of those so I did some research on it. However, my findings were not conclusive and I wasn't willing to buy the kit and test it out myself. Two main matters of concern were:

    1) On the road, say your IAT is at 95 degrees but the CO2 spray drops the temp down to say 50 degrees. Would you run into a dangerously lean condition? Maybe not since the actual mass of air hasn't changed but with our ECUs, I can't be too sure about anything.
    2) I read someones thread where he actually lost power on the dyno when he sprayed CO2. That was probably because the car wasn't actually moving, so some of the CO2 probably found its way into the intake.

    Anyways, I'd like to see one of these kits working in person.
