You are correct, a better heat exchanger to lower water temps through the intercooler will help, but it's still going to be compromised by the size and efficiency of the intercooler core.

GM probably realized this and placed a bigger cooler on top of the blower on the LS9/A, while the Harrop/Maggie config uses the smaller cooler underneath the blower.
I talked to one engine shop who is seeing more power out of the Maggie setup over the LS9 and his reasoning is because it might be less restrictive. |
