Just nice and cool water, no ice. I have a valve I can open to drain the excess water, and refill with ice.
WOW! The heat transfer is enormous... I figured you would be able to run 3-4 runs on a tank of ice water. That's pretty cool, in more ways than one... Definitely the hot setup for the track, but if you're melting ice that fast I can see why A2W is not the best for the street.

yeah i have been talking to a guy running an A2W setup on hie Evo (helps spool up with shorter runs) and he has a MASSIVE rad the size of (if not bigger than) the stock engine rad! its huge! will try and get some pic of it. andi think he is only running around 600bhp.

also what temop is the water coming out off the chargecooler???? is it still below ambient or above?? and what are your inlet air temps??

thanks Chris
