Tired of the hot air ?
Well ive been thinking long and very hard about something..
I call this,... "What if?"
As we begin..
What if, you were to put a COLD AIR INTAKE on your car?
The intake temps SHOULD drop, a bit... but probaly not enough to matter.
What if, you were to put a Thermal Wrapping around your Cold Air Intake?
It Would probaly Keep out a little more heat, and keep your temps from
heating up more.
What if, you were to build a little 9x9x12 Inch Sheet metal Box with a 3" Peice of Intake Piping thru it?
You probaly dont under stand that last one... Let me explain in greater detail.
What if you were to build the little box, and insert it infront of your radiator, behind your grill? So your intake piping runs thru it? This box is WATER TIGHT,
- Keeps water out of the Intake pipe
- Keeps water from leaking out.
Now, The Kicker.
What if you were to have a Cold Air Style Intake with an air scoop to scoop up the cool outside air, and your whole piping system was thermal wrapped to keep as much heat out?
And what if that little box infront of your radiator was designed to have
I C E - W A T E R
Put in it?
And What if you didnt care about the Hassel of after the ice turned to liquid, to open up the drain on the bottom of the box, drain out most of the water. Then fill it back up with ice?
Seems to me that you would have the Baddest, Coldest, Cold Air Intake On the planet!
But as you know there is always that one little reason that god DOESNT want it to work.
Thats were you come in.
Tell me why this wont work and ill try to refine, my idea.
Any Sugguestions?
Greatly Appreaciated.
