Just a random idea...peltier TEC cooling on Water - Air intercoolers Options

[MonsterBOX]

I build custom computers as a part time job..sometimes these things involve watercooling with 1/2od piping and thermal electric cooling using a peltier unit and external powersupply...a peltier is a square wafer that comes in different wattages...when power is run through the peltier, it amplifies the difference in temperature between the two sides...so on a water cooling system u can place a waterblock on the hot side of the wafer apply wattage and the cold side will be DRASTICALLY colder than the waterblock normally under freezing temperatures...peltiers are common in drink machines and other industrial type machinary to cool water circuits as well (kind of like a radiator that runs off electricity)....check out this peltier from swiftech cooling this is basically the same idea except it actually cools the water that runs through it unlike a cpu application cooler.....now if this was applied to the 3rd generation 3sgte water - air intercooler what would the effects be?????

its a cool idea but were not talking about a 3" 60 watt pelter anymore.

the current draw of the pelter would be insane, not something you could hook up to your fog lights.

also the radiator for the thing would be huge.

TEC is cool though dont get me wrong, it helped me get my little AMD 2500 barton to 2.56 ghz.
