Default NX N-tercooler system

It only mentions this working on Air to Air...wonder if it works for air to water?

I was looking at those as well. A little pricey, i might make my own lol out of SS tubing.

I was thinking about running c02 because of the big price difference.
Wonder how that would work?

Not 99.9% sure, but highly doubt it. Everyone would be using it instead of NAWWSS

-127.3 degrees F for nitrous oxide, -109.3º F for carbon dioxide to form dry ice at atmospheric pressure. Pretty much the same, I'd say.

Now that I've thought about it for awhile, I'm not so sure that they would be the same. I think that going from a liquid to a gas (boiling), absorbs a lot more heat than going from a solid to a gas (sublimating). N2O hits the intercooler as a liquid, CO2 as ice.

These type of cooler helpers will do nothing for an air/water intercooler. And On an air/air it take a bunch to do the job right.
CO2 and N20 will do the same job both boil and turn to a gas the moment it cross over and loose pressure.
Your best best is to buy a small nitrous system and inject a 35-50shot into the air stream,
wet after the maf,
dry before the maf.

There is a big difference in spraying through the heat exchanger on a car parked on a dyno compared to a moving vehicle. I can't see such an open design making much difference in the real world.
