[Land-speed] Intercooler Question

I was thumbing my way through the latest issue of Muscle Mustang and 
Fast Fords and ran across an advert for Killerchiller.com. This is a 
system that uses the cars air conditioner to provide refrigeration type 
cooling to water that circulates through a water / air intercooler.

My questions is: has anyone just used the refrigeration from the air 
conditioner as a cooling system directly on the air going to the motor? 
Sorta like in your hose with the AC running. Could a car AC be enough to 
cool charge air temps after the super or turbo charger?  Anybody ever 
thought about doing it? Could you  run the AC from an electric motor? Or 
battery with a large enough alternaor?

Comments? I am going to do a littl ebit of thermo regards the refrig 
cycle but up front info would help.
