As Justin says, many cars ran Turbos w/o an intercooler. The IC was a technique to allow more boost, more air, cooler air is denser air. for those in the hot climates you know your performance degrades on hot days, and yet you get back some of the umph at night when it cools down. Our team drivers noticed that at the 24 Hours in July, the night was good to us!
it's *not* to cool the air to keep things from melting... it's to allow a higher charged air into the combustion chamber. Think this through, all the guys running larger IC are not doing it because things are melting... they are doing it to get a better density of air and thereby boost and thereby more woo hoo...
