No, the back of the blower is nearly touching the firewall since I already have a 1/2" spacer for my nitrous/meth spray bars.

Yes, there are A2W intercoolers right below the turbos. Heat exchanger is in front of the radiator and water tanks is on the fender.

Trick Flow, are you sure about the most flow being better? Think of an engine without a thermostat

Trick flow???

Yes, absolutely. With an engine you are using air to remove the heat from the water.
With an inter cooler you are using water to remove the heat from the air.

You only achieve the maximum heat transfer with the largest temp drop.
Largest temp drop only happens with more water flow all other things staying the same.

way to early for group buy. Need more info prior to even getting to the costs.
Many seem to not have temp issues?
Guessing they don’t push the blowers hard, or their system is dialed in maybe?
