Hi guys
I need opinion on a subject. I think establish a system of water-intercooler. First, put the battery in the boot it from the cooler (it will pass into the blower and the air inside the water to cool water), cooling the engine and the battery will be among the top cover. However, we want to be very close to the efficiency of the engine in such a case can I get? But the water will pass through the heat of the engine overheats due to the cooler air to water heat up.
As the location where you can be the ideal place? Is there among you who did that before?
I'll be happy to share experience and ideas.
Thank you everyone.

Part of the attraction of an air/water cooler is that the location of the cooler is not so important. You will need a second water radiator to cool the chargecooler water, but of course this can be sited infront of the regular radiator, provided of course you don't have an aircon radiator already there.

To be honest, the installation in the pic you posted doesn't look all that great, you want to keep the number of bends to a minimum, and that one looks to have quite a few.
