You planning on running this on the street?I always like the air to water for the simple charge piping.Generally SS intercoolers are pretty good and i imagine that would work well providing it doesnt leak or something :D

There isn't too much to mess up. Hell even if it leaks then you have an aquamist setup already. Two birds shot with just one bullet my friend. 8)

don't these things require a pump, a heat exchanger and a seperate water/coolant reservoir to properly use air to water intercooler?

Buk, stop commenting on things just to make it "seem" like you have a clue.

It needs a seperate pump/res/heat exchanger. Otherwise it's not going to do a damn thing.

I like the small size of them but in return you have alot of bagage to go along with them. A pump..res..heat exchanger.. Then add that ontop of the price of the IC and it's not looking so great.

I think its more work then what its worth on a street car. On a race car id rock it.
