vortec aftercooler question

I have a vortec aftercooler''intercooler'' and Im not sure if i should run it on my setup? I up graded to a ysi from an s-trim and also picked up a snow kit. So should i ditch the after cooler since it was primarily made for around 1000-1200 cfm? Also I don't want to spend money on FMIC since i just got a$$ raped buying intercooler form vortec. BTW it's air/water for those who aren't aware.

also my CR is 8/1 and plan on running pump gas.

That intercooler has been proven to 140+ mph in the quarter. I know LJ was running 9.9 at 139 with one. Later, I used the Vortech aftercooler with a turbo and made over 680 rwhp through an auto/loose converter. I didn't run it at the track, but later on I ran 146 in the quarter at 695 rwhp.
