Front mount intercooler recommendations

I am installing a turbo on my 2009 GMC Sierra and am looking for a good direct fit intercooler. I really dont want to have to cut into the hood latch support or anything like that. Looking at some pics of your trucks, looks like some guys are putting them in under the bumper behind the valance. I like that approach.
