Thoughts on this...?
What can I do with this??

On an intercooled...do you hook "air lines" up to the ends or does water flow thru it? And where would you route the two ends to?

That looks like one damn small, damn skinny intercooler.
You would need a turbo to make it work, and I would worry about it's efficently and pressure drop being so long and small.
Yes you hook air lines to it, hot compressed air goes in one side, cool compressed air comes out the other...
No, don't even THINK of adding this to an N/A car. A stock engine trying to suck air through that intercooler would be like trying to breathe through a super long coffee stir straw....

yah, thats exactly what thats being sold as. i saw it on ebay a few times while looking for an intercooler. (was that redundant or is it just me 
)
i dont really see you being able to do anything with it unless your going forced induction. but like random said thats a crappy design for an intercooler.
