    I don't think it matters what its for when u reach -100c on co2. kayl reached -100c on co2 but his evap wasn't mounted to his idleing cpu and neither was mine the only difference is his evap is ment to be mounted to a cpu my evap chills the air in the box which in turn will be chilling hardware as i had said along time ago that i would be testing older pc hardware and seeing the effects extreme cold has on them.

    Small update today.

    I replaced the air inlet and outlet grills in the box because when i had the system running frost would build up on them and would reduce air flow. Doing this has gained me several degrees.

    as for the view window so much for keeping it clear (pic2)......

    SMALL UPDATE!

    Right from the start i didn't like where the filter drier, sight glass, and the cap tube selector was on first stage. The filter drier and sight glass were way off to one side and i dono how many times i banged into it so tonight i finally moved it. I was also having some load/temp problems with first stage and im hoping that having the valves vertical will solve this problem.

    Heres 2 new pics of what it looks like now.

    Thx Comp


    My current record temp in the box is -70.3c im hoping that fixing this problem on first stage will improve those temps some.

    Ill update again soon with some temps and load pressures on 2nd stage. I know stock is egar to know how the valve acts under a load heh.

    It looks a bit different now i took out the 5 valve/cap tube selection thing and put in a TXV.

    I learned much from building this beast.
