Default An intake modification?

OK, so this guy I know was talking to me about some new intake thing...

it's shaped like an egg, and sits inside your intake tube...and what it does, is acts like a NOS for your intake by spraying CO2 into the egg shaped thing and freezing the air in the intake tubing down to about -30 F...

Supposidly giving you massive HP increase...obviously, if it's true that it can do that...

has anyone heard of such a thing? or is this guy BS-ing me?

Not sure on an N/A car, but I know they work great for forced induction cars....Its the same as in intercooler sprayer...Just cools the intake charge....Not really sure of the benefit on an N/A though...

the CO2 stays inside the egg, just flowing through it...so it doesnt mix with the air inside the tubing...just inside the egging...

hmmm restricting intake and expecting greater horsepower from it? Sounds like crap. Besides the restriction, that is going to interrupt how the air flows within the intake. I bet this works as well as those $90 eBay electric "superchargers" or the Tornado Exhaust tip.

DEI Cryogenic Intake and Fuel Systems
Cryogenic Intake Technology: The Future Of Power

The CryO2 system’s modular design lets you add components one at a time, or for the ultimate power get all 3. Each of these components can run off the same CryO2 CO2 Tank. 5 pound tank kits include all necessary valves, fittings, switches, wiring kit, installation hardware and a 14 ft. stainless steel hose. Spare CO2 tanks also available.
CryO2 Air Intakes use liquid CO2 cryogenic technology to dramatically lower temperatures and blast your engine with denser, more powerful air. 2.5" or 3" diameter kits consist of an aerodynamically designed bulb with a cryogenic chamber that mounts in any 4" segment of air tube. These powerful systems can be fitted to almost any intake and are perfect for turbo, supercharged and naturally aspirated applications. Dyno tests show temperature decreases of 35% or more.

CryO2 Fuel Bars use liquid CO2 to freeze the billet bar to -80° F. Designed to remove heat as the fuel passes through, you’ll get a dramatically colder, more powerful more...

CryO2 Fuel Bars use liquid CO2 to freeze the billet bar to -80° F. Designed to remove heat as the fuel passes through, you’ll get a dramatically colder, more powerful charge. Choose red, blue, purple or polished billet bar (-10AN line size only available with polished bar).

CryO2 Intercooler Sprayer mounts directly to the front of the intercooler or aftercooler and vents liquid CO2 directly into the cooling fins for enhanced intercooler performance of up to 50%. Choose 16" x 5" or 8" x 4" Sprayer.
