jase Regular Registered: May 2002	Re: Intercooler on NA Sat, 22 June 2002 10:04 Nascars (and many other race cars) use fuel coolers. Not unlike an oil cooler the fuel travels through before the injectors. I have seen them used on some fuel injected street cars/v8's (one in particular that's bloody scary, NA - over 1300 ft-pounds of torque, cause thats all the dyno read to) and they definitely work! The other "cooling" used on the intake of NA engines somethimes is manifold insulators, where the manifold and the head have a spacer plate made of a low thermal conuctive material to keep the inlet manifold cooler. And, to correct a commonly misquoted fact, an intercooler CAN cool below ambient. Why? Because its moving and the ambient air stiking it as the car moves can cool the intercooler below ambient. But jeez, to do it it has to be a big, efficient intercooler to dissapate that amount of heat. [Report message to a moderator]
