You mean the intercooler right?

Isn't that a water to air cooler? Seems very much so from the pictures...

And it is also described as a "indirect intercooler", meaning it's a water to air cooler:

A basic distinction must be made between two types of cooling. Direct cooling, where an intercooler is installed in the vehicle front-end area and is cooled by environmental air (wind blast) or indirect cooling, where coolant flows through the intercooler and discharges the heat to the environmental air.
