Default How much does an IC cool?

How hot is the air entering the IC and how much cooler is it usually when it exits the IC?

Wow.. This question is way too general...

There are many factors involved with the Efficiency Rating of an IC..

Most important is design, followed closly by rate of spped that the vehicle is running, and outside climate.. And the amount of boost you are running will change your IC's effeciancy rating exsponentially.. This is where your turbo's A/R ration and thermal efficiency begin to take play in this whole orcastra of math and science..

Reserch a little more, there is way too much info to briefly answer your query..

Im not looking for an exact number (EX: 27.8 degrees), I just want to know generally how much the intercooler cools the air charge(say, 50-75 degrees)?
