Default More CO2 info for stage 3 please..yes I STFA

Just wondering if anyone had some information on where i could get a complete set?

I want it to mist, obvioiusly. I already read about the water. Just want to cool the stage 3 kit down. Should be a pretty noticeable difference. Any online pages/kits would be helpful.

Thanks

Default You can't mist CO2, it evaporates (cools) at the valve valve/nozzle before it hits the ICs. --->

And CO2 has very low heat absorbtion capacity compared to water mist.

Default There is a kit out there from DEI, that is a C02 sprayer setup.

You can also just have someone built one for you, which is what I plan on doing for my A4.

Default Yes but I want to cool the air temps during WOT. So whats the best thing to do.

While water does evaportate, the gains are minimal. Plus I dont understand how injecting Nitrous Oxide onto the intercool would somehow allow it to get inside the air stream. its a closed system....

Whats my best option and why?

Unfortunately I think H20 is the best we can do.

How can the Nitrous enter the intercooler through a closed system?

Default It cant. They are just saying that if you spray the C02 or Nitrous

on the fmic while moving at speed that some of it will end up entering though the intake filter. But that wont happen if you spray it while the car is sitting still. So spraying the core is only good for a short time and mainly used for drag racing.

It does not lose power unless used the wrong way.
