Liquid Intercooler ASSEMBLY - Air / Water Intercooler - Liquid to Air Power - Nissan

Air/Liquid intercoolers operate by pumping cooled water through the cores, either from a front-mounted radiator or chilled water produced by circulating the liquid through a container filled with ice.

If a front radiator is used, this should be as big as possible since the temperature of the liquid entering the intercooler determines the cooling effectiveness.

Radiator technology is preferable rather than oil cooler technology as
these are specifically designed to cool water/glycol. When these intercoolers are used with chilled water, it is possible, in some cases, to get charge temperatures below ambient temperature, therefore incredible increases in power are possible.
