Default cryO2 intake bulb.

Used co2 to freeze the bulb. I've been told it works very well. Inverted canned air might get a little pricey after awhile.

Default Not a good idea, that CO2 can get sucked into the intake, and CO2 in the intake means...

less O2 in the intake...which is bad for power.

Default if the temp difference was that much and the change in temp was quick enough, yeah.....

that's an issue that can be had when using a nitrous sprayer externally on the IC as well.

Default No ****, but it can (and will) still get sucked into the intake.

Do a Google search of CO2 IC sprayers.

I can't remember where, but a particular site did a test with the same car on the dyno, with regular air to air ICs, ICs with a NOX spray, and ICs with a CO2 spray.

The CO2 spraying setup made much less power than the other two.

Default How is a gas that is sprayed onto the IC face going to get up to where our air intake

is located? Was the test you refer to done with an S4? The airflow on a dyno is also a lot different than what the car on the road is subject to.

Maybe it could get in with the intake air, but just thinking about where things are located it seems hard to believe it could happen on the S4 on the road.
