Hot diggity damn! I was talking to Garret a while back about IC's on the turbo and he was saying I should try charge coolers out instead since they're more efficient... You guys are fast

Is the water cooled by a radiator? I assume this isn't the same
'water' as cools the engine, right? You want the air as close to
ambient as possible, not at thermostat temp...
thanks,

Water is circulated through a separate cooling system / radiator. Additionally we built a 5 gallon water tank for increased intercooler efficiency.

AJ,

I just figured out that this is probably the car you were referring to earlier. 911FPM

The car was involved in an incident with another vehicle @ Cal speedway in 2005 during a shakedown run according to posts found on this forum.
