Ok, so I've been looking to do an intercooler. From what I can tell and correct me if I'm wrong, the intercooler takes water from the close loop cooling system. Is this correct? and if so it looks to me to be inefficient to up grade to a bigger intercooler. I bring this up because you want the coldest water for your intercooler. On a pwc it uses incoming water from the body of water your on. which for a bigger intercooler means a colder air supply. Does anyone know how cold the intercooler (stock) gets? I've got so many thoughts on this..

You really need to check the manual(s).

(1) The intercooler hose out leads to the exhaust manifold.
(2) Winterizing procedures specify adding x amount of straight (undiluted) antifreeze to both the intercooler and exhaust manifold.

These lead me to believe the intercooler uses intake water for cooling rather than the closed-loop engine coolant.

Thanks for the reply I will check it out
