Re: inter cooler for 5-psi vortech

You can intercool any boost level, and there will be benefit. However, 5 psi is a low boost number, and an LT1 can usually run that amount of boost safely with no intercooler. So, yes, intercooling would help, but you're not really running enough boost to see a big benefit.
