I think you and I are talking about same concept, icing down the TB using AC freon. Or just building a separate freon system that runs off electricity and non belt driven. The problem with icing intake manifolds, they are made out of plastic nowdays. Cast iron or aluminum manifolds used to be easier to cool down than plastic ones they use now. So now your options are pretty limited to cooling down TB and intake piping itself, then your manifold will raise the temps a bit before air hits the engine.
Yup same concept, but using the ac freon system seems a lot more practical than carrying around bags of ice or dry ice with you. At the track the dry ice thing works, but a system that uses freon to cool all the time, that sounds cool (no pun intended). Ya your right on the intake manifolds now-a-days, plastic is harder to cool, I was thinking back to when I used to use dry ice on my mustangs aluminum manifold. So is there such a kit, to use freon to cool the throttle body / intake piping? Have you ever heard of anyone doing this?
