Intercooler upgrade

Is their any point to uprgrade to an EvoX intetcooler? I’ve been told that the gains are so minimal that it ain’t worth it?

Bigger intercooler normally can give around 5% to 10% more power and resist heat. Its simple...intercoolers take warm air entering engine and make it colder through heat exchange so the boost pressure of a turbocharger increases the inlet air pressure and temperature which if not cooled, it will lead to a lack of engine efficiency. This preserves the benefits of more fuel/air burn per engine cycle and increasing the output of the engine.

On stock turbo with a normal tune, I wouldn’t even bother. Unless you get it super cheap.

intercoolers don’t add hp, they make the car more consistent.
