I think that will cause an accumulation of moisture in your air box and we all know that engine+water=money spent rebuilding[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

I just recently started carrying the engine ice this past summer and have about a half dozen guys running it so far. I have only heard that they can tell a difference in performance at higher temperatures and that it does run cooler to them. That's just what they say,.....I, myself, haven't ran a temp. check on it to see if it actually works yet.

The guys that I have sold it to are mostly Banshee and 250R guys and a few dirtbike and streetbike riders. Haven't used any in a DS yet, that I'm aware of.

From all that I've heard speaking with Motorcycle shops, e-mailing the owner of the company who makes Engine Ice and auto mechanics, even if it didn't help, it wouldn't hurt. I plan to try it out soon. I had an automotive style temp gun used on my machine a while back (I don't recall the numbers) and I figure after I try the Engine Ice I'll have that done again and hope that the person who used the temp gun will remember what the reading was. If it's worth mentioning, I'll mention it. I expect this will be sometime after the big holiday.
