Nitrous to cool TII intercooler?

Got all the parts to do it but still aint sure if it will make a big gain in power.Nitrous is at 190 degrees below Zero when it is released into the atmosphere so would chilling the ic to say -10 make a big diff in power?Change the incoming air to 100 form 210 would gain 25hp,that is what i come up with.



Btw this is on a stock turbo non ported running 7psi 88 TurboII.

Are you spraying nitrous on the outside of the intercooler to lower the temp, or are you spraying into the charge air to cool it? If outside, I don't know; but if you're spraying it inside, you're gonna need some fuel upgrades or you'll blow your motor.

Yes, cooling the IC alot will help you gain a good amount of power.

But you must make sure to upgrade the fuel too. By cooling the charged air....your creating more density in the combustion chamber...and therefore more density in the air=more molecules of air tightly packed. Fuel is a must to make it work right. Otherwise your giong for detonation.

Good save. I was too lazy to say it.
