When I ran the little Isuzu the first year at Maxton, I ran an intake duct from
the throttle body into the heater duct for the car. I kept the windows closed
and A/C on at the staging area, and turned the A/C off just before starting my
run, thus the motor breathed cold air from inside the car. I guess had I been
running a little more motor, or a little longer race, I'd have sucked the air
out of my lungs, collapsed the car's top, and shattered the windows into the
interior of the car. hee hee
Serisously, I did that A/C thing only on my last run, and it was good for
almost six mile per hour over all previous runs. One-time, short-term
intercooling at it's cheapest!

a coil like that could be used to cool intake air temp
releasing nitrous oxide into the atmosphere is NOT
good for it either
