Another cool build is this project from DSE. http://www.detroitspeed.com/projects...pi69-pg-1.html The photo is on page 6, but I think this might be the best design to date. The owner lives in Jacksonville, FL. I lived there for 4 years and temperature would be in high 90F, but the problem was the humidity. Ohio can get up to 100F during July and August as well. Never been to Texas. The design of the intercooler gives him the maximum airflow to the intercooler. Stielow uses the stock core support with thicker radiator. I went with the Autorad design by using a wider radiator. So, that is the 3 options that I know of cooling the intercooler heat exchanger.

That was all really good info Jeff

But what about all different TVS2300 based superchargers internal coolers? Wich of them is most efficient?
