Sounds like a really good concept for cooling the intake air.

Looks like it might be a POS and that it's magic ....who knows it could actually work though.

Its pretty popular down here. I can say it works VERY well, but would be of no use to you. They only use it on cars running high boost such as evos and STIs. It has been proven down here to lower temperature very well and thus provide more power. But like I said unless u fit a turbo to ur GTS and increase boost it will not be worth the bucks.

it says it works with n/a cars,guess you just dont get the potential out if it if you run it on a n/a as opposed to a charged car,especially if your spending close to 400 for the tank and 150 for the intake setup,thanks for the feedback,helped me out alot on this one

had this kit on my supercharged cobalt for a while. Its really only good for a I car and even then its not a great solution for the money and what you get out of it, we took it off fairly soon after installing it

its an idea but the power gains you see from it arent worth the cost. Meth is a much better way to do this plue you can gain much more power from it

unless you decide to inject co2 right into your intake there shouldnt be any problems, just not going to see the benifits they say

yeah the intercooler sprayer has been proven to work on plenty of cars. Its going to definitely help with heat soak. But you can put your own kit for that together cheaper, plus some cars come with them stock or as an option
