Ok here goes, cold air makes the car run better right. Well why not route the A/C in the car to blow in the air box. It would definately provide lots of cold air.
Any thoughts on this? Remember i thought of this after being up for several days.
Sounds weird i know but hey it's something to think about.

 

condensation

 

no power gains, and your car would run slower with the a/c on.

No doubt, that's Remedial....

 

I think the ford lightning has a second ac unit to do that, but it only does bursts of 5 seconds or less of blowing. I think that's all i've heard of....

NOS spray on the intercooler... seen that...

that's all i got for you

 

Yup ford does have that type of setup on the lightnings, but I can't imagine on a Honda what good it would really do.

Been there done that.. The compressor would take more power than the cold air would put out, so it's not worth it.

 

yeah someone thought of this before. it's a great idea in theory, but in actuality it won't do **** - because the ac compressor is on.

nice try, get some sleep - and at least you're using your brain.

not to mention, i doubt the AC system has the flow capacity to sustain even a small engine at full throttle

 

that's great but at high rpms ecu turns a/c off so compressor wont die from being over revved....good try though.

 

How about putting a really small fridge in the engine compartment and run your intake through it?

partially right. ford had a compressor powered cooling setup for cooling the intercooler on their prototype lightning, based on the new gen f150. it made 50hp in 30sec bursts or sumthing along the lines of that...

 

Like i said was up for a couple days and it was just more of a curiosity. I do like the input on it though. tnx
