Anyone Use Co2 Ic Sprayers?

[npaulseth]

I can't afford one now, but was thinking that it wouldn't be a waste of money.

Anyone think this is a bad idea/waste of money?

Thanks.

They do make a difference, sometimes big, sometimes small, depending on your set-up and your outside airtemps & humidity. Any time you can make the charge air temps colder (and more condensed) you will make more power with less chance of detonation.

Looks like a makeable part to me

looks like just some brake line bent into a circle with some small holes drilled into it. a solenoid valve and the bottle. you could easily make that for under $100 depending one the price of the bottle. the AN line, solenoid valve would be under $50 and you could make the sprayer part.

I started to make one a while back for my stock ic. I couldn't figure out how to mount it to the ic. I have some braided line laying here and I bent some coppertubing and drilled holes. Never tired it or installed it though.

I jsut looked at the link. That looks quite expensive. If I were going to buy something for that much I would look into the NX Ntercooler kit. not much more money on ebay and ~400 from a vender. They are proven. My fittings and copper tubing cost maybe $5. I had the lone laying around and I could get a cheap ball valve for ~5. That leaves my total to ~$10 and finding a bottle (actually I have a 15# bottle but am not sure if they would fill it. Don't know the specs).

if people are paying that much for those DIY kits i think ill start making them. anyone know how much just those bottles go for?

[blown_turbo_tsi]

how much would it cost to refill co2 and what kind of place would do that?

You could take the bottle to a paintball gun shop place to be refilled, it cant be too expensive, maybe 5-10 bucks.

Its only about $2 at a paintball shop
