[QUOTE="Teethy, post: 8262367, member: 82108"] Drag racers do stuff like this often. The main goal of ice in the intercooler reservoir is to chill the supercharger quicker and avoid heat soak. Heat soak can kill your HP but only occurs after you run the car hard. If you are running it on the street just give it time to cool off between runs (1hr or more) and don't dog the car while you are going to the race spot. *Edit* TorqJunky beat me to the punch. He gives you some more technical specs that are dead on. The reason I say I wouldn't bother is because if the car is cool already it won't give you more than 5-10 horsepower at best. It is more aimed at reducing the loss of HP after a race than gaining HP before... [/QUOTE]
