[QUOTE="buck russell, post: 1047137, member: 10792"] Actually, coating any metal where the goal is to dissipate heat will hurt the cooling capability. While some say that powdercoating doesn't detract much, it would be far superior and beneficial to leave the core raw. Some say anodizing is a better option, but they're wrong. While anodizing is thinner than powder, it's still going to hurt the cooling capability. Through my searching of the web, I found swaintech and they offer a heat dissipating coating called BBE. If you're going to coat it at all, that's the stuff to use as it both coats it and helps it to dissipate heat. While I do love the black core, I definitely wouldn't want to cut down the effectiveness of the intercooler. [/QUOTE]
