Also, can other's confirm the adapter/cable I will need for the MHD flash using an Android phone?
If you are just going Stage 1, you're fine on the oem intercooler. (Saif2018 is also correct that Stage 1+ recommends the fmic upgrade, i took a chance running 1+ on stock IC based on my driving style and luckily haven't had issues so far but again, YMMV)

This is the cable I use for flashing

You'll also need the OTG adapter to connect that to your phone, but some androids come with it in the box so you might be set there
