Anyone with a S/C using one? How much boost/type of cooling?
Only if you are running a poorly designed system with a big delta p across the heat exchanger. With the poor efficiency of a supercharger, it is really needed.

It is easy to calculate the difference in air density accross the heat exchager tro know for sure if you can measure temp and pressure in and out of it.
