You would be best making the first cooler being the intercooler to take the chill of the ACT then pass throught the CC because it will then find it easier to then cool the cooled air.

HOWEVER i wouldnt bother, i have no problems with temps at 20psi on mine with just a EVO 3 intercooler, in fact my temps are still silly low

If you're sat in the queue at The Pod in July you might find they are not so low then... ;)

As Ian says, intercooler first then chargecooler.

Ahh.. BUT Ade. If you are sitting in traffic getting hot, having the CC will make it worse because of heat soak. Mine suffered badly sitting in traffic and took a while to cool down once moving, where now sitting on the A14 or A1 with my IC once i start moving its instant cooling because its Air to Air.
