This is my first turbo-charged car, and it's honestly taken me a few years to really become attuned to the way it performs (or doesn't). That's my excuse for only recently noticing the correlation between temperature and performance ‒ particularly the way that the car seems to "come alive" when the temperature is cooler. Unfortunately I live in Texas, so those cooler days aren't exactly common.
Does an intercooler upgrade make sense in this situation? I'm not tracking the car or even driving all that aggressively; I'd just like it to have that peppy feeling as much as possible.

In hot climates (especially) and FMIC is a great upgrade as it preserves the power you have and prevents loss of power due to heat soak of the stock one.
