Great idea, surprised I haven't seen this as a street legal mod.

You would only need to sandwich the intercooler between the hot and cold heat exchangers with a (fairly powerful) automotive refrigerant pump connect to them. The cold heat exchanger would go in front of the intercooler.

I'm going to start talking about this to some enthusiasts I know and see if I can convince one of them to do it.

It was a homebrew hack by people in the Honda Civic / del Sol community decades ago, I recall it fondly.
