I will try and find the source that explained everything so clearly. I know I bought the book at Books-a-mil......some building turbo systems, or something of that nature.
From everything I read on turbo systems...Intercoolers after the carb should be avoided as the intercooler is exposed to air/fuel rather than just air like most setups and the fuel from the mixture can become trapped or puddled in the intercooler.
