    Exactly. A gallon cell of ice and water will last a pass or less. Just depends on compressor efficiency, boost and power.

    How efficient would air to air be at the 800 HP level with twin on 3 76mm on 10 + lbs of boost?

    so why don't somebody just invent a contraption where the reservoir & fill cap are big enough to where you can still run antifreeze/water but drop in some of those heavy duty freezer ice packs? almost as good as dumping a mess of ice in there, but then you can pull the packs out after they've warmed beyond their usefulness and then still have a regular setup to drive home on.

    I had hell getting my intercooler to fit behind the grill on my first set up. Truck is a 99 model. How the hell did you get your intercooler to fit in your 02 model George?
