Cryo2 Air Intake vs Meth or NO2 due to local regulations
 
Essentially,
Since then street racing rules of gotten insane in Ontario Canada.
It's against the law now to use things like NO2 or Meth or be fined with Street Racing. My understanding is injecting anything (other than the fuel to operate the vehicle) into the intake air-stream is illegal.
(I've still yet to look thru the legal documents)

If you're from Ontario or are just in the know on such things please enlighten me.

I still have most of the nitrous kit installed that Ray did for me.
It's a shame not to use it.
I figure I could use most of the existing parts for a Cyro kit.

I was wondering if anyone had any experiences using the Cryo2 Air Intake product to reduce IAT's?

I found these links on the RX8 site but meh ..

Would like to know about usage -
- Any real performance gains?
- How restrictive is the Cryo2 intake?
- What else should you get with the kit?
- tuning considerations?
- Overall is it worth the effort?

wcs i would treat this just like i do at places im not supposed to carry a gun. concealed means concealed. n02 spray away buddy

haha, so you are saying I should use NO2 to lower my IAT's?

This would work.

I'm also looking in to placing the IAT in a more appropriate location.
This would be best in a solution like this, and just generally better.

But could you do it without this modification?

WCS, we have a local FD with the Cryo kit and the owner claims it works well during the summer. Using nitrous to cool the intercooler or intake would be expensive. But the cryo stuff is pretty nice, I bet it works as advertised.

I am building an intercooler setup sprayer now, I will let you know my findings.

Stick an LPG sticker to the nitrous tank and tell'em to fuck off since you're actually polluting less than a gasoline engine.
Do it the italian way!

Dude! Long time :) I'll bet the police here don't know what LPG is, might be worse off.


Honestly that might work ... don't see many vehicles running LPG in this area.
I like the idea.
