[QUOTE="bbka, post: 2169030, member: 570536"] Whatever dude, misquoted or not there's really nothing to argue. On the 1st page somebody else said "intercoolers don't add power", then you quoted him on the 2nd page and said "yes they do"... That's why I posted my last statement and gave a few examples. Just getting a bigger intercooler will do nothing if yours is perfectly efficient, hence why that guy said they don't add power. If you put an intercooler on a stock civic it will do nothing, but if you put a turbo on it will add power. Oh and using the power difference between a warm day and cold day is a very simple example if you ask me (defintely not too technical), it explains what an intercooler does pretty well. But yeah a turbo is a power adder, it forces air into the motor (it doesn't just help it), but I'm sure you know that. If you go to the track and the classes where they allow power adders, they would consider that a turbo, supercharger, or nitrous. [/QUOTE]
