I'm thinking of installing co2 sprayer in front of the intercooler.Has anyone tried this? Or have this setup? I'm thinking of making a homemade setup.
What do you guys think about this setup?

I saw this setup in Summit - and thought about it briefly. I certainly don't want to discourage someone from trying something new and possibly better (look how long people ran CR42TS plugs).

With that said - I'm going to stay with alky. It has been used with great success and is close to the same price if not cheaper.

Nah - go post-intercooler before the TB.

I just re-read the original post again...yeah - you don't wanna do that :)

I'm going to be doing it on my A2A setup.

I'm doing it on my syclone which has A2A setup. I'm making my home made setup. I'm going to use the following parts which i think will work.

1/4 brake line shaped like a (S) with small drilled out holes.
Hobbs switch will turn sprayer on with a certain boost setting.
Stainless steel lines.
Nos bottle.
What do you guys think?

It would cool down your intercooler, as the CO2 comes out cold, but I saw a video of it on someones truck and they did a boost launch, were spraying CO2, and it took off quick, but fell on it's face.....all that CO2 was bound to get in the intake......

I just found the video of it sitting on my desktop, anyone have a place for me to upload it or an email, and i'll send it to you.

CO2 spray

CO2 spray

First of all, we are talking 2 different things - spraying liquid CO2 on the OUTSIDE of the IC vs spraying Alky INSIDE the intake before the TB . Alky is a much better idea, since it also adds fuel to the intake and won't be so violent as far as freezing and shocking everything.

I have a large nitrous bar in front of my AtoA, doesn't really help MAT's at all (you can see it spraying in my avatar).

Waste of money.

This is video I took when Les Young owned the truck that Mark now owns.
The cool factor is there but not quite as functional as everyone had hoped.

Mark at what boost setting did you have it turn on? Or did you just turn it on at the line at take off? Do you still have this setup on your syclone?

It turns on with throttle position close to WOT. The spray on switch mounts off a bracket on the TB. Once the system is "armed" from inside the cab, it turns on when throttle position trips the switch.

Yes, it is still on there, mainly b/c I am still considering putting the bottle/plumbing to a better use. :cool:
