it would be good to get some advice off someone who actually makes and tests intercoolers, this seems like a good topic, plazmaman? processwest? rajab? brescianni?

You forgot Autotechnica...

ok... did a bit of googling...

here is what I read quickly..

an object will radiate/absorb more heat the darker it is...

as intercoolers are heated from "within" and not from an external source.... the black paint will actually help radiate the heat out.

but in all honesty... who the fark knows!!

oh and the difference is fark all anyways!

Am I missing something, I am interested in the physics of this debate, not any other BS.

I am no victim. But at least I know this thread is full of sh*t.

Scotty

can everyone just please be serious for once, scott does have a point, we actually have an interesting thread!

[RIP'S_PATCHES!]

as we were saying, pink intercoolers reduce heat because?????

[ashmo]

ive spoken to a few people with black intercoolers and they say they bought them like that because they dont stand out as much and doesnt attract the police attention so much.

Plazmaman mith busters here.

Ok what are the three forms off heat transfer ?
