I know someone has got to have tryed it and I was just wondering if you can rig up a bottle of CO2 to give a cold charge to the intake air?

Design Engineering Inc (DEI) makes a full kit for that, they call it the Cryo2 intake system, it has a bottle, nozzles, and all kinds of stuff to use with it, it costs about $500 up i think, i would just go with nitrous

does that kit inject into the air intake or the TB? if it does it will negatively effect combustion due to lack of free oxygen.

Oh yeah one more point. CO2 is not normally considered a cold gas like say maybe nitrogen is. At best the CO2 in the tank will be at the same temp the surrounding air is but will cool down maybe 20 degrees or so upon expasion when it is depressurised into the atmosphere. Lets do some simple math. 90 drgrees outside, Co2 also at 90, cools to 70 upon release, making , at a 50/50 mix 80 degree intake temp BUT changing oxygen content, at a 50/50 mix from app. 21 % to 10.5 % how ya gonna gain anything?????? with so little oxygen to support combustion. It will be like going from LA to say 2 miles up in the Serria Nevada mountains, what you gain with a cooler4 mix will be more then offset by oxygen starvation.
