Default Is this intercooler too big for my set up

i almost have all my parts for my turbo setup. I have the inline pro log manifold and 3" down pipe. The turbo is a precision ball bearing 50 trim. My friend has a intercooler i can have off his race car. Its a garrett core 24x12x3.5 intercooler. i know this intercooler is good for close to 1000hp. Should i run this intercooler? is it way too big? my goal are probably 350whp on pump gas. i know this intercooler is a pretty standard aftermarket intercooler for evos.

It is larger that you will probably need but you only benifit from a larger intercooler by redusing the pressure drop and intake temps.

that a pretty big problem dont you think.

i dont want any over heating problems and i dont know you guys know but the garrett cores are really really densely packed intercoolers

I am going to try a larger radiator and fans, but first I want to try some other things out and see if they work.

I mean it is a big deal, but only if I want a/c. Otherwise the car sits at exactly 185 deg solid all day long.
