Kyle, don't forget the Bugatti Veyron. I know its not SC, but its worth the mention.

Funny that the fastest production car in the world, one of the fastest production nurburgring lap cars and one of the most focused cars in the world use water-to-air cooling and somehow the system is inferior. (Veyron, ZR1 and Ariel Atom).

Xan, dont forget that the shorter piping also drastically improves throttle response. Also to add to your pressure drop comment. The SC will be able to run at 8psi to produce 8psi manifold pressure with the short piping and no pressure drop. If there is, lets say, a 1psi pressure drop in the IC system, then the SC will need to produce 9psi, theoretically speaking, to produce 8psi manifold pressure. I don't have to tell anyone here that the more you compress air and the harder/faster you make the sc work the more heat goes into the air to begin with and therefore the less effective the entire system becomes.

Funny also that they skipped over some search results that argued completely FOR water cooling and only picked out the ones that argue against it from websites that, Surprise!, sell air to air intercoolers. That's some seriously good research.

I was going to post something on their thread, but didn't want to deal with the arguing that was sure to come afterwards.
