Gonna have to buy me a really big cooler to take ice to the track. I should be able to drop my intake temp about 25 to 30 degrees or about the ambient temp outside. It will be trunk mounted and should have it done next week to try it out at the Street Car Takeover in St louis June 1-2nd.
Sounds like a fun and worth while addition to your car. I have a few questions as I genuinely interested. Are you going to run an upgraded pump? Have you though of upgrading the heat exchanger (thickness, width)? Have you thought about the priority for water flow (tank, to blower, to heat exchanger, to tank)?
