you will get a drop because you need more air to fill the added room or the new intercooler. i dopnt have a Turbo XS but i didn't get any loss in pressure drom, but the Turbo XS one is bugger then mine

According to Buschur, a free flowing I/C shouldn't have any drop in boost. In fact you would have to dial the MBC back a bit.
Besides, once that extra space is filled, how does boost still stay lower than previously set? The extra space might induce a bit more lag as the space fills up with air, but pressure/boost shouldn't drop unless it's more restrictive.

When I added the AMS I/C to my old E8, the boost didn't drop.
