I think all cop cars need to have turbo. nbspnbsp Then they would understand the necessity of putting your foot down and how uncontrollable the urge is to fucking rail on that shit.

They usually have plenty of power as it is. It's a matter of getting the prop to bite and keeping the hull right on the edge of control.

but still couldnt you run a water/air ic and have awesome air temps. or with alchy is it not much of a difference, im not really familiar with the fuel.

if you put rubbing alcohol on your hand its cold much the same when it gets injected into an intake manifold.
Some tractor puller and drag racing guys have a problem of icing up the intake due to a lot of fuel at very high pressures.
an I/C would cause the situation to be worse.
When I ran my dsm on straight ethanol (scored from work) i didnt run an intercooler and after a run my intake manifold depending on weather was either
slightly warm to damn near freezing. I am planning on running a lowish boost setup on e85 with either a air/water or no I/c at all

If I keep my car an outlaw car, I'm ditching the intercooler and BOV.  I don't think it's worth the 40lbs for what I get on a drag only car.

Its kinda the same thing how c02 or propane tanks get cold when they vent something going from high pressure liquid to low pressure vapor with pull
heat out of the surrounding air to vaporize the liquid thus cooling the charge. think nitrous
