Downpipe and Intercooler

Finally instaled the downpipe without cat on my countryman, sound and turbo sound changed completely and it's so much funnier now!
And I also noticed some increase in power which wasn't minimal.
Taking in consideration I still have my car with the stock ECU, Will the upgrade of a Bigger intercooler make gains in power? like the Downpipe did?
because I saw at Alta mini that the alta intercooler guarantees 8 to 12 hp gains in a Stock Ecu.
And which is the best Intercooler and cheap?
Thank you,

DP adds some top end power and even more with a tune. Installing an IC gives about 4-7HP's, but keeps your intake air temps more stable, you can do more back to back runs, without creaking gobs of heat soak.
