I'm wondering why not get a Front Mount InterCooler (FMIC)?

They cost almost $1000 for the full kit from APR, but you can buy your own Intercooler and do your own piping for almost $400, a $600 savings!

The stock side mount intercooler (SMIC) has been described by many as a big heatsoak wating to happen, even if you're not running a high performance software.

I would think that would be easier and cheaper plus still get better results than the complete install of a fan of some sort.
