I wonder how much this will help our C32 LOWER TEMPS

"The CryO2 tm Air Intake consists of an aerodynamically design bulb with a cryogenic chamber which is mounted in a 4” segment of air tube. As the air passes over the bulb heat is removed from the air charge resulting in a colder, denser more powerful charge. Dyno testing showed a reduction in intake air temperature of more than 35%. The CryO2 Air Intake can be used on tubocharged, supercharged or naturally aspirated applications. Multiple units can be used for colder results. Installs in minutes and comes with silicone connection sleeve, hose clamps and connection/vent hose."

Price 130.00

Q: Is this like Nitrous?

A: No, nitrous oxide is an oxidizer which actually adds oxygen into the intake charge. We are simply cooling the intake charge to help reduce the effects of heat soak and provide a denser intake charge. Since we are only cooling the air, this system is much less likely to do serious harm to your motor.

Q: I have Nitrous, turbo, supercharger,etc. can I still use CryO2?

A: YES, the system is compatible with all of the above. Think of it this way, Is your car compatible with a cold fall morning?

interesting but looks like you'll be filling the bottle rather often.

Q: How long does the bottle last?

A: It will last between 2 and 3 minutes if you just sat there with your finger on the button but that would not be good for the solenoid valve. This is a drag racing technology right now and we regularly get 5 or 6 passes out of a bottle of CO2.

Hey Bux,

How did the Cryo bulbs work for you?Any dyno or test results?

Hmm.. Fresh air coming in from the intakes to where the 'tubes' are installed is what? About 2 ft?? I don't believe fresh air coming from outside could heat up THAT ripidly at that location to show any noticable affect.

Or if it does, wrapping the WHOLE intake with thermal shielding clothes or something would prolly yields better result IMO :P
