CO2 chillers and NOS chillers are a complete waste of money, The air will re-heat in the intake, the temp drop is also very minimum and it adds no octane content. The alcohol will knock it down much more and keep all the surronding metal cold as ice and prevent any heat soak. Your intake pipe and upper intake will literly be as cold as ice. With the chiller it just cools whatever air that it comes in contact with which is re-heated in the hot intake. You should go with a either a base kit 2-10 psi switch or 2 bar progressive with 2 bar map sensor and M12 or M14.

I'll pm you just in case you don't check the boards.

how does the map sensor work with a carb is it just vacuum operated ,and i would definitly do a progressive as i will probably be running 20+ pounds of boost the car is primarily just a strip car . in the forums you talk about the other guys kits are you refering to snow/coolmist ,just curious I am new to this technology but i try and do my research and choose the BEST product that is out there .after searching your site you do have some really nice pieces and the info side is a big help too. I saw a fellow syclone driver in the forums too that is a big plus because non of those guys jump into inferior products whatsoever
so the kit that i would want is the universal progressive
