Worked all the way around Mt Panourama until the middle of Conrod Straight..... great for 1 qualifying lap!I like blokes who interpret rules differently.....

MrBean Member 400 Member For: 19y 1m 6d Location: Melbourne Posted 23/05/06 12:10 PM Share Posted 23/05/06 12:10 PM Quote The basic principle relies on expansion of the gas.As the CO2 is released from high pressure, it expands, and temperature drops significantly. It's the exact opposite effect of why the boosted air after the turbo gets hot. As you compress a gas, it gets hotter... Mmm....it is actually when CO2 is being stored under very high press as a liquid, and it escapes, it changes phase from liquid to a gas - this phase change needs a lot of energy, and it "draws" it from the surrounding environment.But your idea is more or less accurate Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25443-co2-spray-for-intercooler/page/3/#findComment-385326 Share on other sites More sharing options...
