i may be wrong but spraying it a colour... wouldnt that mean the paint will fill some of the fins? Therefore less air and travell through the intercooler making the boost not cool down as much??

 

Dude the paint is so thin it will make no difference the gain from going black far outweighs the loss a couple of microns of paint will lose.

If you was to paint it on with a brush yes it will fill the fins.

But with a spray gun, it will cover the FMIC very thinly as it is sprayed thinly and mainly with air so it will be perfectly fine
