Frozen Boost Water To Air

[03 5.9]

my tank holds about 7 gal of water is that too much water?

got any pics of it yet bud? I have been trying to find time and 3rd gen to mock a kit up for. found a truck now just need the time

there is mine, boost is 60-65 ish egt is 1600-1700 this is on a 600cc 12mm pump with 5x25 edms and .093 lines and a s468

That looks like it would fit after the intercooler, before the intake. I may have to do some measuring.

I was thinking about putting one between stages when on a twin turbo setup, and using the stock intercooler after both turbos. Would there be anybenefit to using one of these on a street truck? I could put ice in the tank when its competition time but for just normal driving would it be beneficial without stopping at every other gas station for ice?

as long as you run a radiator for the water it will be very beneficial

Yeah that was my exact plan, through the ice box into a tranny cooler or small radiator with electric fans.

I'm thinking if it will fit after the intercooler I'll add a water res to my weight bracket and use quick disconnects.

on the street while running a heat exchanger to cool the liquid might not be bad, but running ice water through it at the track would not make much difference, because once that air goes through the stock IC again its going to warm it back up to whatever the outside temp is.

the colder the air going into the seconday is the more efficient the charger will be. You could also get away with a smaller charger if the air was cooler.

its still going to heat the air back up before going to the motor.

plumbing it would suck but air-air between stages and the air-water after both would be better.
