and intercooler is to cool charged air in a turbo / supercharger setup. has nothing to do with the cooling system.

Intercoolers are for turbo or supercharger setups not for n/a setups...And a radiator is a totally different thing...

Some People lol . Like ever one said intercooler is for a turbo car. and some supercharger use them to. And it does not cool the engine it cools the air comimg from the turbo or supercharger befor it enters the motor. Lower iat means lass chances of detonation, aslo more cooler and dense air= more hp/tq.
But you could always put one on a n/a car and stick a air filter on one side of the intercooler. And run the other side to the tb. And start a new trend lol

Intercoolers are for turbo cars only... Intercoolers cool the air coming from the turbo and radiators cool the coolant so that your engine doesn't overheat..
