A2A Intercooler fit for '15+ Nismos?

Thanks for everyone's comments!

After a little more research last night, I discovered that the Mishimoto I linked is only rated for 350hp (not sure exactly how they arrive at an arbitrary rating like that). I checked Treadstone, and found they had an intercooler with actually a slightly smaller profile, but 3.5" deep instead of 2.25", and is rated at 500hp and a 750CFM flow rate.

Also found several YouTube videos on how to make a budget bead rolling tool out of a crimping wrench. So, once I cut various sections of piping to size, I can roll the ends to make secure seals. Hair spray is a recommended lubricant to help slide on the silicone couplers, because when it dries, it's almost like a light glue.
