true i was thinking of doing the ice box route and feeding from the box, pump, cooler core, heat exchanger, return to the box, but i still say that the hotsides should be water cooled to get the best gains out of them because as i said the amount of heat needed to shed off that water box would be huge even with the heat exchanger dumping a lot of it before it returned to the system, it would let you reduce the power demand and chip count for sure. but for the true benefit of sub ambient cooling the peltier hot sides would need to be cooled down near ambient themselves to make the price of the system worth it.

also while on the subject of intercoolers what about a copper intercooler core for the stillen manifold? Typically aluminum is used due to it's better ratio of heat capacity for density, meaning a bigger aluminum intercooler can weigh less than a smaller copper one that is equally efficient. But with the locked in form factor of the stillen cooler the 60% higher ratio of heat transfer, and 30% greater heat capacity per unit volume would make copper a definite improvement in the limited space.
