I think a 350 cc engine only needs about 600 cfm at 6000 rpm, because
it fills with air/fuel once per 2 revolutions of the crank (4 stroke).
But I don't think you need a turbine that pumps that much, since
engine's vacuum helps it move the air.

Well to make it cool enough to make it worth while you would have to bypass the wot shut off. Or do the tests to see if it would be cool enough for short runs.

Like a few others, I don't believe the air stays in the TB long enough to cool the air.

I think you'd be better off cooling the fuel, which would in turn, help cool the air.

I doubt routing the AC air into the intake could provide enough volume of cold air to change the temp of the air enough to offset the hp loss caused by the AC compressor being on.

Couldn't this mess with fuel volatility?
