26012, Nitrous Express — NX "N-tercooler"?????? Posted by ecl98pse, Jul-08-02 02:21 PM
Anyone seen or heard about this thing yet? it is supposed to give turbocharged or supercharged cars more Hp by cooling the intake air. it sprays across the intercooler. if anyone knows anything about them please share your knowledge. it sounds like a crock of sh*t, buti might be wrong. i'm curious. :wary

As far as i know, it sprays raw nitrous on the intercooler core which encourages heat transfer from the core to the ambient air. I would think however, that you would get more power from injecting the same amount of nitrous into the intake tract. Anyone else?

I am sure there would be a much larger gain in power if the nitrous was injected into the intake instead of onto the intercooler. The only thing I can really think of is that it is mainly for turbo cars that may not be able to come up with the extra fuel that is needed for boost and nitrous at the same time. It would be pretty nice if you had a smaller intercooler so that you could keep it cold when the car was being run hard. Wonder how long a full bottle would last used this way? The idea seems pretty cool, but I would rather just have an actual wet kit than the n tercooler. Oh well, I don't think I will be getting either anytime soon. Justin

they said you can also spray c02 on the intercooler. But ya i'd say spay it into the intake track. }>

I'm sure it would work rather well. If you use it at the track only, i would think it would last for a little while. I am personally going to fabricate a small shroud to direct all the air into the IC, and use a small cooling fan on the back of the IC to pull much more air through it, to help cooling. I think this would give some good gains, a small amount if that. Cooler air= more power :)
