Hehe,
I bought 2 cans of compressed air today to clean out my computer...well, i used one to plya with <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>. If you hold one of these cans upside down, and spray, it comes out as an EXTREMELY cold spray!
What if ya took a couple cans with ya to a drag strip and sprayed it upside down on the intake pipe and manifold runners...quick ice pack? Any thoughts?

Why not just put dry ice in your air box like has been done for god knows how long?

Sounds new and innovative.... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'> . But new things never work out, never <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'> ...j/k. Funny thought though huh.
Why not? uhhhhh... I would say because it's soooo much more expensive to buy compressed air than it is to buy ice. Duh.
I use the compressed air to freeze cockroaches that I find in the kitchen and what not. Much "cleaner" than pulling out the BB gun. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> The M16 A2 is overkill... but then again, the glock 17 still makes a mess. <g>

Suck it in and hold your breath until you pass out and/or die
A better use for that stuff instead of spraying down your intake manifold would be to clean out any dust and whatnot that accumulates near the defroster vents and in the crack between the a-pillar and the windshield. Stuff is great for detailing.

ya i know about that upside down trick thing. Don't put it on your hands or you can get frostbite. I never got it but if you spray a little on your hands it starts to itch and burn. Fun thing to do is spray it on paper and it makes a foggy window <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'> . As you can see I have too much free time on my hands.

Heh, we used to have fights with that in my old computer class. We all left with red marks all over us from being frozen <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

hahahahahahaha!!!!!
I used to inhale that stuff when i was in high school, and it really fucks you up for thirty seconds! Ecspecially if you are really high <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'>
It is cool to spray it upside down into a ziploc bag and then touch it w/ your fingers, and it will boil and fill up the bag until it pops. I also get destracted by shiny object <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':rolleyes:'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cool:'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>
I was thinking you were going to try and hook it up to your intake piping somehow and get a real cold air intake when you used it! Maybe someone can rig something to this effect up and poste a pic of it. I am too busy right now...
