Question on intercoolers!! :fear:

[Brahandum]

I have a very simple question here!!

i have a vr4 intercooler which i wish to spray it black in color, kay, the question is, will the color of the intercooler efect the performance of it? im very aware that black absorbs more heat than brighter colors, white and shining surface reflects the heat.

But will there be a significant lost of performance or it doesnt have any effect at all? the intercooler from the sleeper(cars that dont wanna be noticed as powerful cars) version is also black in color.

So experts please answer my humble question, tq tq tq :_:
