Just refer to it / them as the heat exchanger(s) for the charge air cooler. Add that they're isolated from the engine cooling circuit if you must.

They're also integrated into the intake manifold, so the cooled charge basically goes right to the engine. Matt's distance from turbo to CAC to intake is very short. From that side of things, it should work nicely. Not a lot of people going the water to air method in the diesel world that I've seen (that said, I don't follow it much anymore either).
