Default Kryogen?!?!?!?!?

Who knows anything about kryogen. Is it as effective as Nitrous or not. I had a friend tell me that it was but in not believing it. Any how i understand that it cools the air tremendously. Well in that case, could this theoretically be used in place of an IC on a turbo?

you can make the air as cold as you want but its still not quite the same thing as fi / nitro. you will notice a slight power increase with a product that cools the air but its nothing close to what you will see from a either afore mentioned products.

it is useful if used on a "cooler" spray bar which would inturn either be in the intake or around the FMIC...

A spraybar with nitrous or CO2 on a FMIC is always usually a pretty cool choice.

I guess theoretically you *Could* replace a intercooler with it, but its not a constant effect , and it wouldnt be nearly as efficient, as it isnt designed to be a heat exchanger, but rather something to help cool.
