I note that the early aircraft engines had the WI before the turbo. Considering that an engine failure in an aircraft is a much more serious affair than a truck on the road, perhaps those early engineers did their research -or maybe they figured that combat aircraft had a limited life anyway!

Anyway, about the positioning of the nozzle. Is is generally true that to get better 'intercooling effect' of the intake charge that the nozzle should be further away from the engine?
