    For supercharged or turbo
    applications where nitrous
    is not an option, NX offers
    another alternative. Tne
    "N-tercooler". Using either
    nitrous or CO2, this unit can
    reduce air inlet temperatures
    dramatically. In a recent dyno
    test a turbocharged Honda
    equipped with an NX
    "N-tercooler", increased its
    baseline by an astonishing 52
    HP! If it makes horsepower
    it must be Nitrous Express!

    How does injecting CO2 cool it down?

    Tom, the effects of using CO2 sprayed on the "Intercooler" of a "Turbo" setup is a dramatic decrease in the temperature of the air being passed thru the intercooler. Have you ever discharged a CO2 canister from a pellet gun? It gets REALLY COLD!!!

    *Plus, using CO2 to cool the intercooler IS A LOT cheaper than using NOS for the same purpose biggrin

    The oval portion of the unit attaches directly in front of the front mount intercooler and spays the CO2 or whatever directly onto the intercooler.

    I wonder how this thing works. It almost looks like you attach it you your intake tube shell to cool it, or maybe put it inside the intake tube to cool it?
    Hmmm.
