intercooler / cooling system

I'm new to the 65 and so cut me some slack if my questions or statements become tiresome from time to time.
Subject,
intercooler cooing system. Has anyone tried to install a stand alone cooling system for the coolers ? meaning its own radiator and pump along with a temp gauge ? Any thoughts from more experienced owners ?

The CL65's intercooler system is seperate from the engine's cooling system already.

Yes I suspected as much (a stand alone cooling system in the 65 ). Seeing the 1/2 dozen coolers in front which one is use for the IC's ?
I have seen the thread involving the cooling mods, nice information !

I found the answer "Stock HE is sandwiched between a/c condensor and radiator"

The one at the bottom at an angle is the HE for the IC. It is on a semi-isolated circuit. It has it's own HE and pump, but there is a cutover in case of overflow because it uses the same reservoir and fluid.
