So where did they mount the intercooler?

That is what I want to know.

I was thinking about fitting a front mount intercooler when I get the JHM supercharger like on the B5s but the piping to the intercooler off the supercharger would require a 180 bend or so and it would be really helpful if you could spin the metal intake pipe between the throttle body and intake manifold around 180 degrees so the piping off the intercooler could go up by the coolant bottle. Of course I still have to look into it and don’t have the supercharger yet.

I wouldnt bother with an intercooler on the stg 1 set up, the blower is barely working hard at that point and the intake charge is only 20-30*F over ambient from what I’ve seen.

How about on TT Setup???

depends on how hard you push the turbos and how well they are matched to the motor… I believe the goal of the turbo car is monster power (with the built motor and all) so the turbos will probably be pushed pretty hard, so in that case an intercooler would be a good idea… but concievably you could aim for a lower power goal, dial back the turbos and run a low boost set up with no intercooler. As long as the compressor spends a good portion of the power band in a high efficiency island it shouldnt make a massive amount of heat.
