ice box set up

I have a gauge for that

Ive done the icebox setup when i had a turbo. It worked awesome but didnt last long at all. Even with 10# of ice.
What worked best for me was to take the HX out of the system loop the heater hoses together at the water pump, route those lines that went to the HX to the heater core.
Running the AC in the summer it blows a lil cooler with the 200* coolant running thru the HVAC. And the 30-40* air from the AC blows over heater core and chills the air nice.
I saw IATs in the 50-60s when it was 100* ambient.
I have no dealing with, a SC just with a turbo.
Hope it helps.

I use an icebox with frozen water bottles at the track. It's done pretty well for me.
I've researched the use of meth with the Radix, and I came to my own conclusion that it really does not do a good job of reducing IAT's on the Radix.
Nonnie's idea is interesting, if you don't need the use of your heater core.

I wouldnt try it at the track
Be done dripped water everywhere from condensation.
But for towing it worked amazing.
Cheap to try too. And the AC actually got a lil cooler since the hot air isnt radiating off the heater core.
