keep in mind an intercooler is not a power adder, simply an anti knock component, generally only necessary for larger turbos or high(30+ psi) boost applications
i went with ETS, great price and fitment. i have the 3.5" and can keep my crash beam for when im not at the track.

They all have an effect on something that makes the engine more responsive or more efficient. If you add a FMIC and your intake charge is cooler, you'll experience less knock and cooler intake charges which will result in more power and a better overall tune. You also benefit from lack of heat soaking in very warm conditions.

Thank you all for correcting the guy who thinks intercoolers dont add power, but please try to stay on track with the core of the thread. I am really trying to make this work but with only 16 replies out of the roughly 600+ views I dont know how much longer it will take to get this thing going.

You are going to have a lower intake temp, so that means you can turn up that MBC you have a few notches with another tune of course. So what do you gain, you gain more power!
