Don't run the SMIC in cali heat(I know it's winter atm, but still), with anything over 7lbs, or you are probably gonna be looking at some nice heat soak, and some nice damage to your piston.

Also, don't switch to an aftermarket BoV. The SMIC gives better response with the stock one, cause its recircd.

Just leave it alone until you get a FMIC.
i learned this lesson the hard way 6 years ago.... 12 psi on stock intercooler in alabama summer = pistons in pieces
the side mount is ok for dd but anymore than that its safe to go with a larger intercooler
