CO2 in intake

i think i read somewhere that NX offers kits for turbos that can run CO2 or Nitrous. what exactly would CO2 do if it was in your engine? i know that stuff is really cold when it comes outta a paintball CO2 tank. but i cant see the carbon being any good. the ads in the last issue or turbo

the only logic i can see in the co2 is cooling the air and making it denser but i would rather use nitrous makes the car faster and with the right meter you will never blow your engine

actually, it's a small intercooler type device that the co2 runs through. it's completley sealed. the air coming into the engine passes through the intercooler resulting in colder dense air. it's good for cars that can't use nos or turbo setups running to high of boost.

Doesn't fire sufficate in a carbon dioxide environment? I would think that if anything it would cause the ignition of the cylinders to dumb down....

dude the co2 isn't supposed to enter the intake. all its supposed to do is run co2 thought a small intercooler and the o2 is passed though a chamber to cool

you cannot run C02 into your engine, it would hinder performance! C02 does not burn, so it would be wasted
