I saw one of Thrashers old cars probably like 5 years ago or so at a local track and they had a huge container in the trunk full of ice for feeding the intercooler. The spray bar idea may help out on the starting line but the heated coolant isnt going to take long to get hot again while constantly circulating over a hot engine and in front of a hot radiator. With near ice water flowing through the whole run I would think it would do a better job, but that ice is prolly going to melt down pretty quick which leaves you with a lot of water unless you use dry ice. The spray bar has its place and I think we would see more of that in the w-body crowd if people knew it helped out.

You would gain more using regular ice vs. dry ice for this set up.Originally Posted by Trannyman95
On the turbo car I plan to build the engine coolant will be ice-water fed and the turbo will be fed into air cool box where it will be a A/W IC before going into the intake. As long as you have a good quality pump that can move a lot of GPM then the ice water mix will stay ice for quite a few runs. You will how ever have to drain water out in between each run and add what ever ice melts.
With my job Reddy Ice: Good times are in the BAG! I have all the ice I could ever ask for.One of several sponsors already on board for the project car.
