ICE BOX

gt_andy · October 20th, 2007, 04:41 PM

I have seen Photos and car in person that have a ICE BOX. Seen dry ice or regulare ice used. I am guessin it helps cool the air going in?

I am just wondering some details about it. only used turbo/SC car? Power gains? Is it worth it?

it's mainly for track use only and yes it cools the air going in, it isn't much of a power increase just helps more air get into engine because cold air is more dense helps prevent detonation and allows ya to run a higher compression or more boost safely...

Wasnt there a problem with that causing condinsation in the intake tube or t/b that could lead to rusting...it was a LONG time ago that i read that.

That link is for water/meth injection. That's totally different from an icebox. Water/meth injection is only for forced induction. An ice box just cools you intake air and can be used for na or fi but you won't see big gains with it and its only good for track use.
