- going into your cooler.....and assumes you dont loose many inWG through the cooler to the MAP

for 14.5psi sea level - stock pulley 74/155
my calcs get 90,000 BTU's/hr (26kW) added to 110,000 for a hot summers day.....
at 95F, 70%RH 673cfm intake snorkel at 6,000rpm...

see attach - cells shaded in yellow are variable you can change....
The volume post the Charge Air cooler is determined from the engine displacement x rpm and is hat I call "THE DOG"....so you can change various conditions (what I call THE TAIL) and the feed to the engine for a specific rpm stays the same...ie: the dog is waging the tail - not the other way 'round....
hence for various rpm, pulley configs etc...cfm intake changes, intake and TB drops change....etc...but feed to the motor...constant.
cfm should be 377...but 7cfm is fuel vapour.
Don't worry about the water side - that's a manual calc.....not linked (apologies)

I'm sure everyone will have a different take on this.....let it rip....
That's a nice spreadsheet! I was just coming up with a basic formula off the top of my head in about 5 minutes, but your model looks much more complete lol.
