Default FMIC vs Side Mounted Intercooler

Which intercooler design is the most beneficial for the S4? I would like opinions on which models are the best for performance, installation,price and etc.I like the look of a fMIC, but wondering if it can deliver the same type of performance as with a side mounted design.

everything i read says ER's are the way to go. best bang your your buck. i could explain but im too tired. FM smother the radiator plus they have the " i hae a turbo" ego look. plus no fogs? (Unless u have ALL the right tools, and i mean: tac/mig welder, cutting wheel, and every audi special tool.) with your current mods u should be fine with stocks.
BTW STFA
