[QUOTE="Danny, post: 177005, member: 132"] for heat transfer metals it helps though, for example, you often find higher grade and hotter processors using a copper base with aluminium top. Why? Because copper absorbs heat faster than aluminium, but dissipates slower. So, having the combination, it has maximum absorbtion and dissipation at the same time. Some have full copper solution and to counter the slow heat dissipation they use higher powered airflow fans. Applying this fact on automobiles intercoolers, although the metal/aluminium underneath is the weak link, having a better heat absorbtion/dissipation material on top would also help the weak link to absorb/dissipate faster. In practical sense, no one would apply those coating coz it is not cost effective. Imagine having a gold plated intercooler, not only it will cost a bomb but it will be stolen a few minutes after you've parked your car. [/QUOTE]
