No compressor. This cooler is used in race/drag cars. The way it works is that
you attach your fuel lines to the in/out lines of the can. You then fill a soda
can with water and freeze it overnight. The next day 'race day' you insert the
soda can inside the cooler can so that the fuel passing through the coil is cooled
'cold fuel burns better giving you better combustion/horsepower'. My idea is to
put this 'cooler can' inline with your water cooler and fill the cooler can with
LN2 instead of a soda can with frozen water. This will cool the water as it passes
through the cooler can coil. This would avoid the MB mods needed when doing LN2
cooling the traditional way. And i am guessing avoid getting condensation near
the MB.
