the same effect is claimed to be products by Motordyne Copper ISO Gasket. and it's cheaper. and you don't need to mess with tanks and stuff.

I saw this at PRI 2 years ago and i wasnt really that impressed. If you look inside the segment of tube they give you there is a little bulb inside. i dont really know how to describe it. anyways it appeared to me that it would cause more of an air restriction than anything.

How does it work? It's like NOS then, you need to refill the tank with CO2??? The CO2 is used to cool the bulb and in turn cools the air going through the intake??? 50 degrees cooler???

Its pricey since you need to get both the tank, install kit and the intake system. over 500 all together. Anybody else have any more info on this system? They don't claim any numbers, just "usually" more HP & torque.

for that much money, I'd invest in a N20 kit and have higher power. Hell, even at 50 shots, I'd still get more power.

honestly, I don't think it's worth it.

but with NOS you have the chance of destroying your engine if you arent careful...the worst this will do is extinguish the firing of the cylinders (since co2 is basically a fire extinguisher)...you just gotto let the co2 heat up and dissapate and your car is fine...NOS will kill it...i think thats the main difference..its just safer and easier to use
