Perhaps he means to power his car by co2, you know, like the little cars you make in highschool, just get a big co2 canister, mount it in the hatch, have a friend slap it with a board with a nail in it, and off you go!!! Guaranteed to run in the 9's

manslayer is right that is what i am talking about for the most part. they make a fuel rail also that cools the fuel. i have seen it and i am looking for a little cheap power till i get a carb setup i like. and if i had a turbo it would definitly be worth getting a cooled intercooler. i was just seeing if anyony has done this. you dont have to treat me like an idiot cause you have no clue what i was talking about. i grew up with old mopars and this is the first rx=7 i have owned and i dont have a crap load of money to spend right now but when i can i will be getting a new motor just looking to push what i got.

Sorry, I really wasn't trying to treat anyone like an idiot. 95% of the people in this forum know more about cars and engines than I do. I just saw the post and the concept was so outrageously hilarious that I just had to interject with a tiny amount of my retarted sense of humor. You have to admit though, it was funny

"liquid Co²" Holy ****! Liquid cobalt? Wouldn't that be a little... hot?

Seriously, though, sounds like you'd rather want water, meth, eth and N20 first.

If you have money to burn - go for it.

My cheap-*** method - toss a couple snow cones in the IC to pre-cool it.
