Dave Buschur himself said that was a pointless intercooler and the only reason he made it was b/c he was having trouble getting the 3.8" core in stock.

Go with the complete Perrin intake, or a Samco intake hose with Perrin filter. I have a Buschur pipe with Perrin filter but the Samco/Perrin silicone pipes are cheaper and yield better drivability.

Don't you already have the AMS FMIC? You aren't pushing enough horsepower to need more?

If you already have the AMS FMIC then don't bother upgrading since that a very good core and is capable of handing just about anything you throw at it.
