Thanks Bernd. Is it just the super-cooling that nitrous is used for or are
there other combustibility enhancements?

Well, on the extreme side, Nitrous super-cools the intake so I would say
that colder is better. On a more "Real World" example, running the intake
tube and a "Cold Air Tube" from the front of the grill to the filter helps
out quite a bit. Being VERY humid is not good but a little bit won't hurt.

We're always talking about cold-air intakes and insulation of pipes, etc. to
keep the air as cool as possible. Does anyone know what the ideal
temperature of the air should be at the throttle body? Does the temperature
of the air affect the CFM rating? What about humidity, we know that real
humid is no good but is 0% best?

Thanks DML!
