Maybe it gets a big pressure drop becuase it is cooling your air so well. A book that I read over last summer on turbo systems talked about it in detail. Higher pressure at higher temps cuase the air expands, less pressure with the cooler more dense air. I might be crazy but that makes some sense to me. You should measure air temp at both sides of the intercooler to see if your intercooler is really doing what it should or if it just has a leak somewhere. I read in here earlier about the aluminum being very thin and tearing easily.

get the aluminum, it will only tear if you bang it against something. Mount it well to the intercooler and use the flexible connections to connect it all and you will be ok.
