Intercoolers
The reason I'm going with gt30 turbos is for several reasons...I'm looking for great power and minimal lag...Also the price of gt30 turbos is a lot cheaper than the price for upgraded vtg turbos...The price really washes out after all the supporting mods you'll need to make them work, but the gt30 turbos have a lot higher hp potential than any vtg...Now I was told that the Ic will be different for gt30 turbos on the way they connect with the turbos...This something I did not know...I guess the hoses would be different or maybe the end cap would be at a different angle...
While I agree that GT30's are certainly capable of making great power, I think that for minimal lag you can't beat the performance of VTG. With just our 65mm Billet VTG's we were able to produce 690 Wheel HP on a 997 GT2, and currently have a build going on in-house with our 68mm Billet VTG's on a 997TT. Remember, the whole purpose of VTG is to minimize lag, so by eliminating it, you have to compromise somewhere, either low end or top end power. Using the standard 20-20% drivetrain loss formula, you could say our 65mm Billets produced over 800 CHP. Are you looking for more? Beyond that, you'll definitely want to consider some engine work, so that power level is what most would consider "safe" without upgraded internals.
With our IC's, there's no cutting required. They are designed to fit right into the factory location. We previously used Bell cores, which seem to the be industry standard, but with our new proprietary cores, we've found there is absolutely no need to go bigger. Efficiency is key..

Aftermarket intake system is a must with GT30/A30 kit since stock intake is restrictive
Proto/TPC coolers use stock hoses which is very good
