Default New home made mod

Some dude at the track tonight had made up a new mod, and I thought I would tell you guys about it. He took a little fuel pump, and hooked it to a container with ice water in it, and pumped it through the hole left over from the TB bypass, then back into the container. He said it cost like $50 total. Maybe some of you guys can let me know what you think of this mod.

I thought of something similar with my nitrous purge. I ran it through the TB bypass and I can tell you it would get much cooler than water but the effects were nothing that I could record or notice.

Vortech5300 yes I made several runs. I love that servo man, I chirped the tire on the 1-2 shift. My new best run was at 84 degrees and very humid. It was against some sprayed ricer that tried to stage his rear tires. Good race, I was winning by maybe a length then just before the finish his car took a **** and fell back bad. My only new mods were servo, TR55's and remove headlight. 15.31@91.16
I was happy to get 2 tenths since last time. Are you all going to run this Sunday? Oxidizr thanks for the info on the mod.
