re: Your #1 tip to improve crawfish boil

Ive used an imersion chiller before. It cools the water really quick but is too much of a hassle for me to clean and what not, plus all the water that goes everywhere.

I think the best method (better than stirring) is to repeatedly lift the basket about 1/3 of the way out of the water then place it back down. Doing this forces the water in and out of the holes in the basket exposing it to air. The more surface area the water is exposed to the faster it will cool.
