I am... really close to installing some sort of ice box even though my car is not ever going to see a day on the track. I did a series of pulls the other day and my Turbo decided it was time to take a break. But it was a dumb ass amount of pulls, so I think I'm good for now. I will most likely have one installed next year when I get everything else on the car finished.
It's definitely a point of no return. Lots of noise from the pump. Sounds like a washing machine. Also a lot of drilling in the trunk area for an icebox.

Damn... is there an alternative method for non track peasant such as myself. I'm guessing I could use meth for strictly cooling, but I don't know anything about the stuff or if it is even safe.

At the same time I did pulls for 20 miles straight without any issues. When doing normal spirited driving there is absolutely no issues whatsoever.

Maybe I should just hold off on cooling since I probably don't really need it. But I feel like I need everything else.

Thanks. If you get a chance, can you measure how much it sticks out to the top and to the rear side. I’m wondering if I will be able to open the trunk in my garage, when the garage door is opened :) the gap is small
No problem. I'll measure as soon as I get home today.

You don't need an icebox. Not until you need an icebox, then you know you need an icebox.

Add a 2nd washer fluid reservoir and a generic intercooler sprayer. They are relativly simple to make. A reservoir, pump, switch and a couple sprayer nozzles and washer fluid hose.

Not really the best solution compared to using meth bit a simple stanalone addition that can help.
