Hurry! Hurry! Get this pile of junk that I removed from my RACING R3 while you can!! No reasonable offer refused... it won't last long!! (just jokin')



Hmmm... now what did I put in that huge space that opened up behind my engine?

 

[hombre]

It was a perfect fit... an ice box:



No, not for beer (a la BusaJack). Mine cools my IAT below ambient.

How and the heck is your bike still running with all those wires removed and the battery?

I now use a Braille battery (much smaller). All those wires performed non-essential functions... that I don't need at the track.

What is it plumbed to?
Why not a flip-up top to allow you to use a block of dry ice?
Maxton soon?

Hey Cal, how you been?

The ice box gets filled with ice, then water. The iced water then gets pumped forward through my neck-mounted water/air intercooler (pump on before engine start) and recirculated. The reason dry ice is not used in IW/Air intercoolers is it will freeze the moisture out of your intake air, forming frost on the inside of your intercooler... causing major intake blockage. A peek inside my intercooler reveals the fine air passageways:



A straight-through, ice water/air intercooler is INCREDIBLY efficient... less than 1/10% pressure drop. I'll keep you informed on Maxton runs... bring a bag of ice.

Maxton? I have seen pics and it looks fast. Good to see someone taking it to the limit. Still COOL!!
