Interchangeable names for what is the same thing.

Aftercooler means that the air is cooled after it is compressed.

Intercooler means that the air is cooled within the intake system. IE in between the compression and the combustion.

No offense, but that just makes no sense.

Bottom line, even if you did do it, the intercooler would cool the air to ambient, and then the water/air would heat the air back up again to whatever degree the water was at. If you ran ice this would benefit but would overshadow the purpose of the air/air intercooler. If you didn't run ice, it would be a waste of time/boost/ air temp.

No one has done it for a reason Now, supercharged and turbocharged is the way to go
