In this episode of DIY's Tricked Out, host Andrew Totolos, with some assistance from Dave Markley of Design Engineering©, kicks the power up a notch on a Dodge SRT-4 by installing a carbon-dioxide intercooler sprayer. This upgrade to the existing turbocharger/intercooler combination serves to cool the air entering the engine's combustion chambers even more than the intercooler alone. And as all engine-mod enthusiasts know, colder air means more power.Here are some video highlights from the episode. Scroll down for brief summaries and links to the videos.

VIDEO 1: Intercooler Sprayer -- System OverviewCooler air, delivered to the engine's combustion chambers via an intercooler, is denser and more oxygen-rich than ordinary air, hence provides better spark and more horsepower. Dave Markley's CO2 system serves to cool the air even more than the already beefed-up intercooler. This video provides a brief overview of the system and how it works.
VIDEO 2: Intercooler Sprayer InstallationAfter installing the CO2-supply tank in the trunk of the SRT-4, Andrew is assisted by intercooler expert Dave Markley as the two of them install the CO2 lines under the vehicle and mount the sprayer to the intercooler up front.
