          It is mixed with the exhaust gases and expelled in the usual manner through the exhaust system.

            i think it would be easier to setup a custom co2 sprayer. and get about the same gains.

              Although it's not a sprayer, there is a cryogenic air intake system that uses liquid carbon dioxide to create a cryogenic chamber mounted directly in the intake air stream. It's an interesting alternative to water injection. Go to:
