Coming to this thread late, but:
Milford Cubicle II: You've been running this setup for almost 2 years now, How's it working? been worth enough to upgrade/simplify the system? Have you done any testing; OBD readout recording, dyno, anything?
My hunch is from a power perspective, it's not making much difference, and here's why: The engine management is adaptive. In a carbureted engine, the fuel mixture is adjusted and fixed by volume. As the fuel changes temp, it gets more or less fuel by weight for a given volume, so the fuel mixture changes with temp. With the feedback loop(O2 sensor) the computer sees the leaning effect as the under-hood temps rise, and adjusts for it.
Cooling the fuel going to the rail may prevent heat-soak by cooling the fuel rail after the engine is shut off.
As for the "hot vapor" system, it makes plenty of sense. The efficiency gains mentioned are not un-realistic. It sounds like a way to get diesel like efficiency out of a gas engine. Honda developed a high efficiency ceramic motor a few years ago that operated in the 2500 deg. range. Efficient as hell, just didn't last very long.
We only use inter-coolers/heat exchangers/etc. to dump waste heat that we can't use. Mainly it's to deal with conventional metallurgy and avoid detonation with conventional gasoline delivery systems. The hotter a cylinder operates, the more efficient it operates. The limit is where parts start melting. Think the hot vapor engines are confusing? Check out this:
ever heard of a six-stroke?
