if intercooler size is an issue and you are forced to run a smaller core,
think carefully about your turbocharger type and size,
running small turbos ie a t34 to run large ish power will mean running high boost levels and high charge temps will follow,
if you were to run a larger turbo at a lower boost level to make the same power, the charge temp would be much much lower

Generally bigger is better, but of course it only needs to be big enough for your application.
And heat generated will depend on compressor type and efficiency, and how much boost you intend to run.

You use an air to water heat exchanger to cool the charge air down, then a small radiator (in comparison to an intercooler) is used to cool the water down.
