Posting up for my brother because for some reason he's being stubborn about making another forum account.

Anyways, he's building a 70 camaro, pro touring type car. Detroit Speed everything front to back underneath it powered by an LSA and a TR6060 full floating 9". The blower has been gone through and the heads are at Texas Speed currently getting worked over and coming back with a new cam as well, think he's aiming for 900ish HP. He's looking into inter cooler options and had read about the interchillers years ago. I tried searching and could only find threads from about 3 years ago. Was looking to hear from anyone if they are worth the hassle?

In my opinion a goal of 900 horsepower would be more suited to a larger blower, which would mean more efficient and less heat. With that being the case a properly sized blower with a decent heat exchanger will do the job. I always felt water meth was a cheaper and easier option than the interchiller.

900hp through that blower is going to create a ton of heat. I've seen one interchiller installed on a Camaro and it didn't work as well as the owner had hoped. That's all I know about it.

I have seen a killerchiller work pretty damn well for a turbo application. Its a different company completely. One way or the other all these kits consist of is a plate type beer wort chiller, an expansion valve and some fittings and hose. I was gonna do one of these for awhile but all the parts could be had for like 200 bucks total.

They work well for intercooler temps but generally murder your normal A/C performance with any good amount of ambient heat outside. Seen pretty much all of them come through the shop through the years and in AZ I would consider it a no-go.
