That is a totally flawed design IMO that is no more effective than the OE set-up due to the condensor sitting in front of the intercooler, so you might as well keep the OE set-up that doesn't have this restriction .
After reading your comments, I'm not sure if you are aware of the BTU pressure issue

The reason the Air con condenser has to go on the front of the Intercooler is because the system is sealed and a increase of temp will increase the volume of the gas which will cause a issues with the condenser unit.

This is what ForeigneRS is hinting at I think.

It's not so much of a problem in cooler climates (i.e U.K ) but in a hotter enviroments it will suffer.
