I see the folks with turbos using intercoolers a lot...most often air to air cooled, but occasionally air/water cooled.
What I wonder is why isn't anyone using the gear associated with cabin air conditioning to provide better cooling than an intercooler? It seems to me that the evaporator coil (isn't that the part under the dash?) could be built into a box that would allow for it to cool the intake air much like it cools the air in the vehicle's cabin.
OK...so, I know this can't be an original idea, it's too simple...so there MUST be a reason that this isn't being done. Can someone explain to me why it isn't?
Thanks!
