What do you guys think about using it to cool oil - either engine oil or trans gear oil?

A couple articles on this:
Convert AC condenser into oil/PS cooler? [Archive] - FSB Forums
Useing A/C condenser as a trans oil cooler? - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards
I've heard of condenser's being reused to cool the air-intake. Not sure if it really works or not as it restricts the airflow.
