I ran 44 psi and made 575 on Buschurs Mustang dyno on an HX40 and the 2g VRSF core... obviously not the same but its an example..

I'd gain ~20 degrees intake temperature post intercooler on a 1-4 pull... at 95 degrees ambient temperatures..
 
It should do alright. A better choice would be moving to an ETS Core. They are a little more pricey but they are more efficient. You can go with a VRSF but just keep an eye on IAT's during pulls. If they get too high then you know its time to move to a better intercooler.
 
+1 to what Ricky said. Good intercooler, the only real issues with it are the poor build quality with the pipes and flanges, plus the hardware doesn't fit. Couplers aren't the best either.

ETS FMIC is a lot more efficient, but its also twice the price. You get what you pay for, the SSAC/VRSF Kit is worth the ~300$ price tag.
 
I suppose I'd also like to add that it depends on what fuel you're going to run..if its e-85 or you're spraying Methanol or running race gas the cores efficiency isn't nearly as important as if you're running straight pump gas and trying to make decent numbers..
