Inter-cooler Condensation a Problem

[olddog]

I've been looking at a new or slightly used Ford, and Ford is putting a lot of ecoboost engines nowadays. I was looking for reliability data and found a law suit filed in 2013 (never found the result). The complaint is that water condenses in the inter-cooler, then under hard acceleration the water is sucked into the engine causing miss-fires and power loss.

I'm certain that water can condense, when air is cooled. I'm also sure that water does not burn well. So the complaint seems plausible to me. I'm sure conditions have to be just right to happen. I know there are quite a few boosted engines in the Cobra and other performance cars. So I thought I would ask those with experience, if they have ever heard of or experienced this. If it happens, how often? Details would be interesting.
