Question Which intercooler set up?

What would you guys recommend for an intercooler setup for the race track?

1. Front mount with Cry02 sprayer?

2. Or Water to air intercooler, with a ice box?

Just looking for opinions. I don't drive my car that much on the street, mostly at the track.

Big garret-core FMIC, proven and it works. Spray meth/water at the FMIC outlet to soak up a ton of heat, but with E85 you're probably doing pretty good at doign that already.

For a pure drag-car go for the air-to-water which will also have less piping.

i like the less piping with the air to water, but i also like the looks of a huge front mount in the front of the vehicle. And i do like to drive my car often on the streets. I don't know!!!

If it's really for the track, then run no intercooler. Build a short i/c pipe setup and switch to E98. With good enough fuel, intercoolers are just a pressure drop restriction.
