now thats 100% not right.....

so your cars radiator is ineffective too eh? how do you think a IC for a supercharger works? liquid to air.

the bigger the rad or cooler any fluid travels through should be cooled faster or better. more fluid, even more better.

oh, and the fluid flows through little tiny tubes with fins around it to dispurse the heat as air flows through it, theres no dead spots, or eddies, this aint a river.
