yeah, most likely that's all it is... probably not nitrous (kinda a waste of NO2)... they have cryogenic kits that cool the air running through an intake/FMIC/etc., so i imagine this is just a ghetto (though weight-saving) version of the same...

doubt it's nitrous.... it's probably just a regular fire extinguisher. Like the other guys said, he's spraying it onto his fmic to cool the air.

btw... that guy can't drive that Z worth ****.

He's spraying the from mount with nitrous, it cools the intercooler down so its colded air going into the intake. I use to do this with my turbo eclipse, it does work, but its a waste of nitrous for a slight amount of power.

dude that guy sucked at shifting what was he doing shifting with his elbow? lol. and they do make CO2 kits that run hardlines in front of the intercooler the help further cool down the moving air. doesnt help much if you dont know how to drive though lol
