FMIC question

I am going to have an NPR FMIC pretty soon and they pretty much bolt on the back of the radiators and so i am planning on bolting the intercooler in the back of the radiator but when i checked my fc today i noticed there was this intercooler look alike (dont really know what it is) or i think its the airconditioner. But anyways theres something that is behind the Radiator and i dontno what its used for so i was wondering could that be takin off to have the intercooler core to be there.

The A/C condensor is in front of the radiator (between rad and bumper) if thats what you're talking about.

is the A/C condensor important for the car or could it be removed for the intercooler to be bolted on.

if you want AC, you need to keep it and work the FMIC around it, keeping the AC will also require very well thought air ducting. otherwise remove all the AC components and have about a 30 lbs weight reduction...

The oil cooler is lower and in front of the condensor.
