oil cooler cools oil. intercooler cools intake air. when you compress air it generates heat. yay physics! most oem turbo charged cars use a smaller intercooler, but it all depends on the setup. say a big turbo and 20+ psi and youll want a big intercooler

HAHAHAHA. That's amazing Vinnie. Consider him marinated, burnt, thrown out, and compacted.
