Re: Intercooler ??? (Arturbo)
i touched the middle core not the tanks, so is it normal for the core to be warm ?

Re: Intercooler ??? (ForcedAccord)
An intercooler is basically a big heat exchanger. The inlet side (endtank) should be warm and the outlet side (endtank) should be cool. As far as sizing goes, it all depends on your specific application, but generally, a bigger intercooler will result in a higher pressure drop across the system than a smaller intercooler.
