Just out of curiousity sake, why would you need an intercooler on a SC application?

I mean, assuming you're drawing air from in front of the radiator anyway, where would the air heat up enough to make a difference?

I mean, 7PSI isn't that much compression (unless I've missed something) - anyhow, I can see where it would apply with a turbo since the turbos are a heater due to the exhaust temps being transferred...
