yes, you can powder coat it. i wouldn't though... You will decrease its cooling efficiency. They make a special radiator spray paint that will not effect the cooling as much.

well not only that but if you powder coat it the coats are pretty thick so less air will be able to pass through the intercooler to cool the charged air from the turbo inside...... so powder coating is a no no.... lol the radiator spray is your best bet, or if you can wait for Greddy to come out with their anodized ICs im sure you coul djust pick one of those up.....
