I'm using a liquid intercooler in my setup:

It's the OE cooler from a GMC Cyclone. I have to deal with the goofy outlet that originally coupled to a GM oval TB, but oh well. I'm using my AC condensor as the front mount heat exchanger, and I'll have an icebox in the system downstream of the heat exchanger and upstream of the intercooler.

I haven't figured out my pump yet, but since I am putting a Walbro 255 in, I'm considering using the OE fuel pump to pume the intercooler liquid. I may use water, or I may use something that can get colder (alcohol, antifreeze, etc.)

Looks, damn good Dave.

I might try to pick one of those up if I see one next time at the junkyard.
