      Either way. Most drag only units are plumbed into a separate ice water reservoir (Coleman cooler) and use a circulating pump. They can also be plumbed into the cooling system, BUT this is obviously less effective cooling, and you will need to look at radiator size because you are going to need a LOT more heat rejection to keep everything cool.



      (Sorry, misread your post slightly... You are wanting to use a separate water radiator cooling system without a reservoir? Yes, it will work, but what is really the point? You will need a radiator for the intercooler system, which negates the space advantage of the water/air units....might as well just go air/air and eliminate the middleman.)
