I had someone tell me that I could hook some kind of mini-refrigerator to my car, drill a hole in it, and hook that up to my air intake. How? and If I can, Where do I get the parts? What do I need to buy?

Its not worth the money, they don't make refrigerators that small, and the addition of weight would ruin some of the gains. The gains wouldn't even be that great anyway.

Are you sure they we not just joking with you? I've also heard people argue that if you route the A/C into the intake, you'll get HUGE power gains..... just not true. The amount of power the A/C compressor drains, won't be compensated by the cold air.

Why the heck would you want a refrigerator in your car anyways? Do you get that thirsty? I mean the smallest ones I have seen are at Target and they are like the size of a breadbox. That isn't very big, not big enough to hold anything good anyways.
