Yes an upgrades FMIC will make your car run more consistent after the first few pulls. Intercoolers are just an air radiator, small area will not be able to dissipate as much heat as a larger one, thats not to say slap the biggest one you can find on your car and it will be better. Use the search function, there is countless reviews on FMICs. Read up on the n54 ones too, they are all similar or shared products depending on what you buy.

Other question:
Its the same flash as the guys with PPK have, just you're car came with it rather than flashing it on after. JB4 will be a power increase, but its not going to be as much as going from a normal non PPK car to JB4. worth it still, yes imo. I have both. The PPK and the JB4 have a lot of overlap in that they change some of the same parameters to make more power, but the sky is the limit with auto tuning and pro tuned JB4s where the factory PPK wont make as much use of other mods such as your FMIC upgrade.
