Okay... I guess I'm going to have to go back to freakin' Elementary School, and
start all over.  My teachers taught me English ALL WRONG! ;-) 

Having an intercooler in front of the radiator WILL block air that the radiator
needs to some degree.  Would it be the single cause of a car overheating?  That
hasn't been determined.  But what I am trying to say is that an intercooler by
itself won't do anything except to improve aesthetic performance (in some
people's eyes) and having it block the radiator can make it minor contributor
to a car overheating (or at least having rising engine temps.)  

Going back to the original post, a CAI works well enough.  And if you're
driving in Arizona heat, either better coolant or an improved cooling system
will help you... Not an intercooler going straight to the TB (a la FMIS... sort
of.)  While the FMIS (example of something in front of the radiator like an
intercooler) does it's duty like a standard CAI, it's blocking air going to the
radiator... yada yada yada... you know what goes on after that.

Take away the words "road" and "race" and you got that right! ;)
