Not quite, the AC pump is a sealed system using freon to remove heat from the air. This makes use of the AC system like a van or SUV with rear air, but instead of a second evap in the rear to cool, we tap into the system and run the freon through a dual chamber cooler that allows liqued to be cooled. The liquid in this application is the intercooler coolant.

It can be cooled to near 40 degrees F in ideal conditions. So say the outside ambient temp is 90, the intercooler coolant could be cooled to say 70, 60 or so.
