We're talking about small fractions of total drag, and some 'signals' could be lost in the 'background noise'.
What you are talking about seems to have no relevance whatsoever to either the original poster's question nor the measured gains I made in intercooler efficiency by making aerodynamic changes.

A good example of someone talking from the experience of having actually improved heat exchanger efficiency versus someone just theorising.
