I'm not sure what kind of intercooler that was, but it is modified, and the end tank configuration is not exactly correct for that type of mounting configuration. Keep in mind that every degree of bend is going to cost a little boost pressure.

See the Blue TII pictures in this thread. This is a better end tank design because it allows for less bends in the plumbing. It looks like it has about half the bends of the system shown in the picture that you posted, which will probably make a difference of about 0.5 psi boost.

Spearco will make you a custom intercooler.
