Anyone ever use Dry Ice?
Can I use it? I put a 5 gallon fuel cell in my backseat thinking the ice would take longer to melt...I put 3 1/2 bags of ice in the pits and when I got to the starting line...the ice was already melted.
I heard of somepeople trying to use it(dry ice)...does anyone know if it can be put in my fuel cell for constant cooling?
Thanks for any info.

Re: Anyone ever use Dry Ice?
I don't know the answer to your question, but can I ask one of you?
Do you think your BBK 80MM TB made an improvement for you? Can you give me some details why you think so, if it did?
Thanks, man!

Re: Anyone ever use Dry Ice?
It is so hard to tell. It looks alot bigger than stock plus alot nicer. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I went to the dyno after I got it done...my a/f before was 11.9, after it was 12.4. I also did the holley intake as well...so I'm sure that had something to do with it.
If you can find one used...yeah why not. I bought new for 400.00 from summit. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Re: Anyone ever use Dry Ice?
Like Brian said.. run with alcohol.
I was going to run this but started talking to a few of the guys that have tried it (one being Tweaked 2 and a few other NSCA guys) I had a few diff methods that i was going to use but they said stick with the ice water. There is some other things you can try as well if you are wanting this cold or colder there is products you can use but it gets pricy.
Reason being is the fuel falls out of the spray because it freezes from being too cold and creates lean spots on the pistons.
