Co2

[BoostAddict]

I was looking to buy an intercooler sprayer that would spray CO2. I was just wondering, what are the benefits of CO2, the difference between CO2 and nitrous, and what precautions you have to take with using CO2.

Did you bother to do ANY searching at all? I don't mean to just give a 'use the search' reply but come on, this has been beaten to death on this board. This question is like asking 'Has anyone ever installed 3 inch exhaust on a DSM?' Do some searching, and if you still have specific questions, then feel free to ask.

i'll sum it up for him:
liquid gas spray on IC and make cold. co2 and n20 do about same. one cost more. one cost less. intake not like co2 so be careful. if co2 bottle gets too hot in car, co2 bottle release all contents of bottle into car. co2 good to make IC cold. water good too ebcause water have good specific heat even thou water not as cold as co2. try both water and co2.

hey aslan. sicne co2 has 2 O's, and n2o only has one O. wouldnt CO2 be better than N2O! hehe

CO2 would cause too quick of a rise in cylinder pressure; so quick that no motor would be able to hold itself together (think bomb going off). The whole reason you can get away with even running N2O is because the nitrogen acts as a combustion buffer so it's not so violent. Remember, even N2O has a much higher Oxygen content than just ambient air.
