ok, so I am just wondering if it is worth buying a aftermarket Intercooler, my car is stock for now, but should I still get one? Is there a big difference in power, or what?

if you want good results i recomend a front mount/cross-flow intercooler and a RonR FFIM. but like he said above, on stock boost your not going to benefit much.

did you do larger diameter ic piping at the same time ck?

Nope I used a bolt up IC and I noticed a large difference on hot days accelerating on the freeway, I would also light up my tires by flooring it in first. the car wouldent do it before the upgraded IC.

I noticed a good power difference when I installed my Driftmotion Spearco replica intercooler and had hardpipes fabbed up at an exhaust shop at the same time. Really really nice.
