Actually, Sean, I don't know that a Sidemount IC will do much for ya... true it'll cool things off a bit, but by running all that piping over and back, you're going to introduce quite a bit of lag to your spool up. Since you're running only 5psi, you don't need a ton of cooling... a TopMount IC would work really well, either air-to-air or air-to-water. The stock top mount IC is almost adequate on the stock WRX's turbo running 15psi... something like that should be more than enough for your setup at 5psi. Plus it'd be way cheaper since there's lots of wrx guys that have upgraded and would prolly let a stocker go for cheap.... 'course you'll need a hood scoop.... might as well try to find a WRX hood, they're like what, 100lbs lighter than the RS's?
