air/air intercoolers are generally more street oriented but will not reduce temps as much as a air/liquid intercooler. But liquid ones usually have a reservoir you need to fill with cold water/ice......so it becomes more track oriented in its normal configuration...unless you keep ice in your back pocket.
Not to say some people havent come up with interesting ideas for the liquid type for street use.
In my case I use water/methanol injection under boost to assist my air/air intercooler in cooling things. But mine's a turbo, and I have it set presently to kick on at 40% boost.
