Hook it to the tap and drive with a long garden hose dragged behind your car.....

Seriously tho, you need a closed loop: water pump, radiator and a reservoir.

air/water is far superior for race applications, and even street if u wanna do all the work.

u can fill the res with ice before a run at the track, works awsome.

Well honestly i think routing the charge pipe on a Water to air is way simpler.
