Radiator - Charge Air Cooler: Description
On vehicles equipped with a supercharger, there is an additional radiator used in the cooling system. The charge air cooler radiator, is a conventional cross-flow aluminum core radiator. The charge air cooler radiator mounts in front of the A/C condenser, and behind the front fascia. The charge air cooler circulation pump is mounted to the side of the charge air cooler radiator. The pump is used to circulate coolant between the charge air cooler radiator and the charge air cooler located beneath the supercharger. The charge air cooler radiator operates independently of the engine cooling system. The only common link is the coolant reservoir. Both systems use the coolant reservoir as their source of coolant.
