Water also dissipates heat faster than ambient air. Another reason why ATW works so well.

A fan setup would be sweet, but you would either have to switch the setup to turn it on, or find a way to have it cut off at a certain MPH and let them free spin.

This was kinda my point. An A/W has the ABILITY to cool better if things are modified or improved. The A/W you see on a drag only car looks NOTHING like what's being packaged with most PD supercharger kits. Stock for stock, I don't think there's much difference and I might even give the edge to the A/A. But the A/W has potential to do much better. I'm working on those modifications right now! LOL! I'm not taking any of this as a KB vs Procharger debate. Just sharing notes and a friendly discussion.

Edit: BTW, my intercooler fluid temps were 64* last night when the temps outside were 96* and I wasn't using ice or fans! :)
