I have been browsing around the net and I came across a diagram that showed the components of the intercooler system. I was shocked to find out that the water is shared with the radiator!!! I realize that there is a dedicated heat exchanger and that the water more than likely flows through the intercooler first before heading off to cool the engine, but I feel that there should be a dedicated water tank/reservoir for the intercooler.

If I remember correctly the '03 - '04 Cobra Mustangs have a dedicated reservoir. I believe that the SRT-6s and SLK32s would benefit greatly with a system like that. I am going to research some more on the actual plumbing of the intercooler system on our cars to see if there is a relatively easy way to accomplish this.

It would be interesting to get some baseline air intake temps from the stock system and compare them to a dedicated system. If I do find a way of fabricating this I will definitely document this with all the details. Let me know your feedback on this matter.
