Spraying the IC with CO2...

[Nwimie]

if your still below fuel cut its probley not worth doing lol. your EGT's + intake temps shouldnt be that high i guess every little helps but it can get quite expensive

Im going down the hybrid route eventually.

I am going to "aquire" an extinguisher so it wont cost anything

in short the answer is yes, my mate used to run a drag Scooby at Crail alot, when it was warm the Fire Extinguisher was cracked out and the FMIC got a good long blast.

TBH tho, its not goin to make much difference on a standard car, that said the TMIW (top mounted interwarmer) would get flushed with very hot air waiting in the queue and then on the line, so it might make a difference after all

P.S. Make sure you dont get a foam extinguisher...... its not pretty
but its VERY VERY VERY funny

Wouldnt the vast amounts of C02 being shot at the intercooler and into the bay choke the engine, while its trying to brethe in as much oxygen as possible??

Shakespeare County raceway dont let you use it on rwyb days, same with intercooler water sprays.

I doubt it will choke the engine unless I spray it at the air filter...
