using an intercooler in low boost applications is pretty much LOL anyway.

Ehhhh, I dunno, the charge will still get hotter than normal IAT so when you used one when boosting, it just might have been enough to bring it back down to prevent det from grenading it.

Yeah, you do not want to coat the intercooler in regular paint as it will screw with the air flow not cooling the charge, they do however sell special paint for this application which if i remember is kind of pricey for what it is...
