Air to water intercooler
Is anyone running one??
If so how did you hook it up??
Is it better, worse, or no change??
Im going for that sleeper turbo look. Not sound as i know that a wastegate and blowoff valve will let anyone in an earshot hear me.

I did the all out sleeper look..
Got a little spearco air-water cooler... got a couple cooling cores for the front (looks like an oil cooler) .... custom built water tank in the wheel well of the trunk with pony pump....
It's got two 3/4" hoses runing through the cabin to the engine compartment... I can bypass the oil cooler (incase i wanna run ice) ...
The pump is connect to a pressure switch to activate upon 1 psi boost... and i have a little override switch in the cab...
Lots of fun... works great and it's quite hidden.... I got a Tial Blowoff also.. it's so huge that the noise it makes is far less then others that most people use...

My friend Nick had air to water intercooler with T3/T4 turbo.. He drove Civic with GSR motor with turbo kit... LASt night he ran 13.3 in quarter mile and it had Slick tires... I dont know is it good or not...

Bah, I ran 13.2 with a starion IC. Sorry, in his case the water to air isnt all worth it. In any case I dont think the water to air is any good for daily driven turbo'd cars. Who the hell wants to pull over and fill the tank with water and ice every day. Especially during the summer when that **** gets hot and stagnant. Although, its good for the sleeper effect......then again sleeper effect is only possible with closed dp and bov routed back into the intake IMO!!

Dan, I'm offended. I thought we were tight.
I think my air/water intercooler will be fine on hot days especially with the giant cooler i got for the water. see here https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=203852
