yes an intercooler = cooler denser air = more........in the air/fuel/spark equation but if a sc doesn't generate heat ???........... yuh lost me........ and i'm not arguing i just didn't understand...........sounds like a contradiction....... tho i'm sure my grasp is still better than scoobies....... expand on that for all of us..... i doubt i'm the only one
When I talk about heat, I meean the under hood temps, not the Air charge temps... The Turbine housing on a Turbo Gets REAL hot and Radiates the exhaust heat into the surrounding area. Thats why the Power steering on the turbos gets relocated, if I remember some of them melted in the beginning. We had to move it on the S/C system due to Physical space...The blower sets right there. The S/C doesn't add to the engine bay heat significantly like a turbo does b/c it is not connected to the exhaust.
as for the I/C...works the same with a Turbo as it does with super... Like you said AIR/Fuel/Spark.
And I do admire you for tackling what you have done and not throwing in the towel... Top notch girl.
