    running an intercooler on that much boost would be pointless. you will lose 2-3 psi. id personally run a water to air barrel cooler. but to answer the question yes it would work but it would lose a bit of boost

    What generation gt4? an air-to-air one off an st185 would be a bit shit, but a water to air one from an st205 would probably work quite well.

    no he wont. i ran an intercooler on my 3psi setup and that was a bit 600x300 cooler. lost maybe 1 psi. upped the boost and didnt notice much drop in boost at all. cooler is almost always better than no cooler
