Message	...which is why I stated that there are. Please keep in mind that a zillion variables exist in almost any situation. With an intercooler.... e.g. .. 1)you are boosting at 10psi at 3700 rpm at 35mph 2)you are boosting at 10psi at 3700 rpm at 65mph In each case your engine is under very similar conditions but in #2 your intercoolers are much more effective. Maybe Aux W/M injection can offer more predictability offering the same cooling regardless of speed? I'm not knocking (hehe) one or the other - just making discussion.... 8.5 to 1 CR NA. For the moment....
