Whatever you do , don't buy something that blocks the bottom bumper opening . Have a read of my thread on the subject here :

my current IC core size is : 260x600x75 with 21/2" outlets .

Well you need to get some data, just adding a larger intercooler makes no sense. Especially a cheapy one that you have no idea how efficient it is.
