Yes, I remember posting about it some years ago, it's all to do with fluid dynamics which also applies to airflow.
The calculations are very complex, probably far above the scope of an aftermarket manufacturer.

Unless it was an exact copy of the original it will most likely cause the problems as described.

A decent radiator re-core specialist may be able to refin and rebuild a corroded intercooler.
