A heat exchanger which reduces the temperature of the compressed air before it enters the combustion chamber
An intercooler is a special radiator through which the compressed air passes to cool it off before it enters the cylinder. This can only be found in turbocharged engines, as compression heats the air up, and normally aspirated engines do not have to cope with extra warmed up air.
A device which cools the air entering the carburetor or fuel injection system. Colder air has more oxygen molecules than warm air. Thus cooler air gives more power and better fuel economy. An intercooler looks like a radiator. It contains large passages for the intake flow, and uses either outside air or water directed over it to lower the temperature of the intake flow inside. Also called a charge-air cooler.

Itâ€(tm)s a special radiator through which compressed air passes to cool it off before it enters the cylinder.
A device used on turbocharged and supercharged internal combustion engines to improve the volumetric efficiency and increase the amount of charge in the engine, thereby increasing power. The inter in the name refers to its location compared to the compressors; the coolers were typically installed between multiple stages of supercharging in aircraft engines. Modern automobile designs are technically aftercoolers because they appear at the very end of the chain, but this name is no longer used.
a small radiator used to lower the temperature of air compressed by a turbo-charger (or super-charger). This increases its density, so more air can enter the cylinders - more power.
a device used on turbocharged A turbocharger is a device used in internal-combustion engines to increase the power output of the engine by increasing the mass of oxygen and fuel entering the engine

a must for turbocharged engines, the intercoler make the air much colder and your engine will perform better

a radiator for air, and is usually in front of the main radiator

a wide, usually flat metal part that cools the air that passes through it
n: an intercooler is the intermediate vessel between the high stage and low stage in a multistage system.
System for cooling air or gas between compression stages.
Heat exchangers that eliminate heat produced during compression between the stages of a compressor.
A device used on turbo or supercharged engines to increase horsepower. Basically, cooler air is denser, and contains more oxygen for the engine to burn. An intercooler works a little like a radiator and is usually placed at bumper level or, as in a Subaru WRX, under a big bonnet scoop. By dropping inlet temperatures it ensures the air is more condensed and helps power output and also engine longevity.
A heat exchanger that cools the air (or, in some installations, the intake charge) that has been heated by compression in any type of supercharger. An intercooler resembles a radiator; it houses large passages for the intake flow, and uses either outside air or water directed over it to lower the temperature of the intake flow inside.
A device installed on the delivery side of a supercharger to cool either the compressed air or the fuel mixture as it passes to the cylinders.

A "radiator for air" that absorbs intake air heat to cool down the hot air charge from the turbo. There are several types of I/C's but this isn't the pace to discuss them.
Essentially a radiator used to cool the compressed intake air for the engine. The cooled air is denser and can provide more power and also reduces pinging/detonation. Intercoolers are used for both turbocharged and supercharged engines. Most intercoolers are air-to-air type, which means that ambient air is used to cool the compressed intake air. Less common air-to-water intercoolers use engine coolant to shed heat from the intake air. Turbocharged S12's do NOT come factory-equipped with an intercooler.
A heat exchanger used to cool the hot pressurized intake charge of a turbocharged/ supercharged engine. The cooling gives a denser charge with more oxygen for kw. gain and also less chance of detonation.
A radiator-like heat exchanger between the supercharger or turbocharger and the engine to cool the air/fuel mixture.
A heat exchanger that's added to some turbocharged engines to cool the air after it leaves the turbo. This increases the air's density and means more air can be pumped into the engine. The result is roughly a 10 to 15 percent improvement in horsepower.
That part of the air compressor used for cooling the compressed air between stages of compression.
Device that cools air as it leaves a turbocharger or supercharger before the air is blown into the engine air intake. Cooling makes the air denser and richer in oxygen, which lets the engine produce more power.
A radiator like device that cools the air that has been though the turbo.
