Do you know what known figures for average reduction of temp of water/ air over air/air are?
I wonder how many other aluminum ICs can be found at boneyards...

You'll find of alot of arugments for/against water/air intercooling however with mixed driving especially in the case of low speed high load driving the water/air IC has a much greater advantages over air/air (espically if a fan is used on the radiator of the system).
Not having long tubing runs, not having to carve up the car, and having more "heat storage" for mixed driving make the water/air advantagous. Now if you were running full tilt on the freeway and needed lots of cooling...air/air has many advantages
For instantaneous "hit the throttle and need cooling at any speed" water/air is a better choice. It fits my needs
