Just because you have an intercooler doesn't make the kit "better". At first I thought it was odd Vortech didn't run an intercooler on there stock Cougar kit. A supercharger will not get as hot as a turbo. At 6psi this headunit is not pumping out tons of heat and Vortech does not recommend an intercooler. It's a complete waste at 6psi. I was watching my intake sensor the entire time throughout 6-7 back to back runs and the temps never went above 80 degrees (no intercooler on my car obviously). Of course it was about 40-50 outside but I don't think that its much higher than a stock car would show. I've heard you see about 2psi drop across an intercooler but I'm sure that depends on the intercooler. So this is from my testing and info directly from Vortech. As far as the exact cutoff PSI for when to use an intercooler I'm going with what Vortech says but I'm sure we will have temp data when we get parts for the upgraded kit. This base kit will be a 6psi kit and we will come out with an upgraded kit from there which will have an intercooler.
