Default Double capacity to FMIC

I currently have a PACE double capacity intercooler running 17psi from a 'stage 1' hybrid T3. Would i benefit at all from a Front mounter?

Pros i can think of are colder charge but would it be worth it? I could also get a better cold feed to the intake.

Cons i can think of are longer spool up time, but would it be really noticable?

Cheers.

running 17 psi you would definatley see gains in power and lower charge temps and prolong the health of your bottom end. the only cons are paying for the grs.i run pace double and general opinion on here seems that they are only suitable for 12psi.(i run a standard car so does me justice)
