You are going to see a lot of pressure drop with that core. Either go smaller or thinner, 2.5-2.75" is all you really need. You should be looking at a Silvia core size.

That isn't too bad, of course you didn't mention what turbo you are running. Try to match you turbos cfm to the cfm handling of the intercooler. The overall length and width don't matter as much as the depth, that is what causes large pressure drops.
