So, i am thinking of purchasing an intercooler. and want to go with a setup that requires no to very little cutting and will be easier to go back to stock? also how much does an install cost average on intercoolers? I am thinking between Helix stepped design or AMS?

and am i making a good decision on getting the intercooler and selling the downpipes?

thanks any info will be appreciated.
I have ar design catless dos and lived in sd with them. They aren't loud enough to draw attention and IMHO are a much better mod than an intercooler unless you really pushe the car.

I've got the helix fmic and love it.
