Maybe some of us would like to learn something or is it really a Private Message for a good reason?
If all the answers ended up as PMs we would never learn anything.

Wolf_7. They work very well my friend. Most mount them in the trunk/boot area of their cars. Keeps the intake air temps down. So, not a waste of time nor money. Hope that helps.

 

The ice tank does work,, when you have ice in it,, put ice in it make a run ,,drain it put ice in it make a run ect. With a ice tank, without ice, you have more water to cool, better to stay stock if only your car is a daily driver, here ice tank is a pain in the a**. I took heater cores from older cars and removed my fog lites ,,put the heater core in the fog lite opening, on street ,this made no difference. , on the track yes,, (#10 pump from Needswings you don't need a bigher pump than the 10) as , I could turn on my pump and fan cool the ic water for 60seconds then start the motor, the engine temp would drop fast ,,do this 2 to 3 times and my engine temp was 179,,(ambient temp 82) my iat temp would drop to around 95.
The more heat exchanges you have, the better but heat exchanges can only cool to ambient temperature. First wire your fan and ic pump to go on with the key.
Good idea to move your batt to the trunk. Now you have a 3 gal hole to put a ice/water tank. ,,
if you put the ice tank in the trunk, use a larger pump or add a pump at the tank to push the water to the main pump.
part 2 is to remove all your heat exchanges, keeping the fan and pump still with the key
the tank in place of the batt ( remove the batt tray also) build a water tank, install a killer-chiller ,,no ice needed your iat's will run 50* when ambient temp is 90

A killer chiller would work great.... But the cost is a lot more. Running an ice tank for those track days is lot easier. But if you want a really nice high tech set up, then the killer-chiller would be nice. You decide.
