What size nozzle are you running and do you use straight meth or a mix? What are your IATS now?

Nitrous boils at -127. And costs more a lot more then co2.
Co2 works well as long as u use alot and make sure your air intake(airfilter) is nowere near the injection stream.
If it sucks in n2o you will lean out
if it sucks in co2 you will have have ignition issues.

Personally I would recommend using nitrous and injecting it into the engine.

Even though N2O spray is only 17° colder than CO2, it seems like nitrous would remove more heat because it is a liquid. CO2 spray is either dry ice, or CO2 gas. Picture touching a piece of dry ice with your finger. If you just felt it quickly, you would notice that it is very cold. Now if you could dip your finger quickly into liquid N2O, it probably freeze several layers of skin and kill your warts, too.

I just had the bottle lying around and trying to figure out what to do with it. If I used CO2, the filter will be far enough away where it wont affect it. As for "injecting it into the engine", if I wasnt so worried about frying a piston, like ive done in the past with other vehicles, I might go that route. But, the turbo and meth should be more then what i need.
