I can't remember why now, but whilst you argument seems logical, it doesn't
work out that way, a water rad is smaller than the equivalent air one.  It's
also much easier to get a nice plumbing route for the air.

Thanks Matthew.  Haven't completely ruled out water intercooling, but the
issue was cost.  Also whether its water or air the radiator has to do the
same amount of work as an intercooler and take the same amount of heat away
to get the same cooling ie same size rad as intercooler, although haven't
thought it through fully yet.  Space around the radiator is very very tight
on the Xtreme and I woun't make a final decision until I've got the nose
cone off and sussed it out.  Up till now my main focus has been feasibilty.
I have concluded it is feasible at a reasonable cost, so am proceeding.
On your did you seal the decomp plate on one side and gasket the other or
use two gaskets?  I prefer the former.

regards

Nigel
