[QUOTE="Matt in Houston, post: 15034046, member: 166363"] With the KC installed, the fluid coming out of the intercooler is usually colder than ambient unless when building boost at WOT (A/C and KC is off anyway under WOT). Usually when you are going WOT, its perhaps for 10-15 seconds or so at most (unless running mile events or a full on road course car), so the pre-chilled fluid already in the system is all the intercooler sees in that short amount of time. Once you go back to partial throttle, the A/C is back on and the KC is back cooling the fluid again and the recovery time is fast. So no real need for the HE in that type of situation. So while you are cruising or idling on the streets, if the intercooler fluid chilled by the KC is colder than the temperature outside, than the HE is heating up your fluid and preventing it from being as cold as it could be. Basically the HE is making the KC less effective. [/QUOTE]
