I would leave it on the horn - pre intercooler would make the air more dense in the intercooler and the droplets of air might star unifying into larger drops which is contrary to our desires and would REDUCE flow through it also. All the air is focused in the intake manifold and we would have the air as it picks up speed in the manifold cooling right before it enters the ports with less chance of reheating. For more cooling in the manifold area - reduce the methanol - go to like 35% meth. For more power go to 65% methanol. On gov research sites it actually says water /meth burns most efficient for power at 65 meth 35 water for power. You could actually go to straight water for maximum cooling.
