Default Real or Fake?? You decide...

ripped from another forum...

My buddy's shop got their AWD dyno going, and were doing some experimenting... So they decided to do a run on this GTi, baseline, then spraying a bottle of n2o on the intercooler to ice it over... I expected a good jump, but NOTHING like these numbers.

HPA's Twin Turbo TT 3.2VR6 gets about 50 extra hp when they use a single fogger nozzle over the intercooler. Keep in mind that's not just dumping a bottle over the FMIC. Do we know whether that was corrected or uncorrected? If that's a corrected (CHP) number on an AWD dyno, it makes sense. Uncorrected (WHP) I say fake.

It looks like the engine could be ingesting some of the nitrous, couple with the cold intercooler I'd say its real.

The concept is very real... Whether it would net 70 hp or not is another question..

http://www.nitrousexpress.com/Pages/Ntercooler.htm

I intend to build something similar.. the kits out there are just too expensive for what they do.. It's so simple a concept that I could build a nice looking and good performing one w/ readily available stuff.

A bottle full of Co2 would DRASTICALLY reduce charge temp, ESPECIALLY at roadway speed w/ the air hitting it after being doused in gaseous Co2.. Basically, it would likely be cold enough for ice to form on the intercooler.
