Intercooler, as in a front mount as a replacement for the side mount you already have ???

Not exactly easy to understand what you're getting at.

Boost, it can be adjusted via a remap, and also an adjustable controller can be added in.

Leaks, do a search and you'll find lots of topics on them.

What car is it?

Is it standard?

There are better things to do if it's standard like the suspension first

Sorry, no, I can't help as I can't figure out what your question is.

Boost is adjustable via a re-map, as has already been suggested, but your thread title refers to the inter-cooler.

Guessing you're talking about a replacement FMIC.

It won't help power in itself, but will reduce heat soak issues in really hard driving.

It may, particularly if you fit a really big unit, cause turbo lag when coming on boost, because there's more volume of air to compress.

It will allow a remap to run higher boost, offering more power.

Temps hit 51 deg C today - my Forge FMIC didnt allow any heatsoak despite trying to provoke it!

Well, Baz, we've always known that you're "special" that way!

I can't believe I was sad enough to edit all of those thread titles to remove that apostrophe!!

And it hasn't entirely worked!!
