What size intercooler for an S-trim???

I know people have used a fmic on there supercharged cars but I'm just curious as to what size they were using? Would something like this work? It's the stock SRT4 intercooler.

Core only:

24.5" wide x 5.75" tall x 2.75" thick

specs:

7 charge rows
3/8" Ambient passage @ 9fpi
3/8" Charge tube @ 9fpi

Pictures ^ for reference. and also do you think it'd be a pain to get the IC piping made for that intercooler right there?
And if not any other suggestions on sizes and such. not sure how efficient they have to be for a blower car.

Re: What size intercooler for an S-trim???

I've been thinking hard about adding a FMIC as well - I see some fairly high AITs when I'm not in boost and the Alky injection is off. From what I've read, you'll need something that will handle more volume. Along the lines of:

26 x 12 x 3

Anyone else have any thoughs on this? I've done a few searches and most of the FMICs I've seen are on LS1 cars. Anyone got pics of one on an LT1 car or know an specifics on what modifications are needed to fit a 12" tall FMIC (other than removing the inner bumper and support). Looks pretty tight in there.

Well I did some research and that intercooler I mention will definently not cut it. I'll probably build something that has a core of like 26x12x4 so that I can try and get the most out of my setup as possible and remain on pump gas. Speed Miser what kind of power are you making with your S trim on/off the injection? And how many pounds?
