Have you done any calculations to figure out what the actual temperature rise of the water through the intercooler will be?
I bet it's not very much... not enough to be concerned about in terms of running the hoses next to each other.

What's weird about this is that the water in the reservoir never feels as warm as the inlet temp reading in the log when the water pump is running continuously.
If you set the water pump up to come on only when in boost it is not only not as effective at cooling the intake charge, it also substantially raises the base temp of the water and in that circumstance does not cool the intake charge as much as it does when the pump is continuously circulating the water through the exchanger and you're right, the heat put into the intercooler is about 1+/- degree per second you're in boost from what I've seen in my logs which will vary with the reservoir volume.

Should be a pretty simple calculation to derive the temperature rise...
Compressor discharge temp, air mass flow, heat exchanger efficiency and water mass flow should be about it for system variables.
Constants will be specific heat of air, specific heat of water.
The "worst case" is the most efficient heat exchanger, which brings the charge air temp all the way back to ambient.

Looks good man. I wish I could route mine that way. I have the battery cables routed along there. I dont like the way Whodeanie routed mine, along the coolant hardlines. Too much heat transfer. I am looking into routing them in the rockers. Seems like there is goign to be plenty of room if I use hard line. What are you using, exactly? And how are you bending it? Thanks.
Edit... but then, if I read that correctly, you have a relocated battery as well! Oh I am very interested now! I got to see how this works out![This message has been edited by BV MotorSports (edited 04-07-2013).]
