So I bought a turbo & want to start looking around for an intercooler.....I'm planning on going from a 2.5 HOT side ---> 3.0 COLD side......So where do you get your intercoolers from? What would be the best brand on a budget?

Why smaller hot side than cold side?
Unless you plan to have a custom intercooler made than I would just stick with 2.5" piping, also your piping has to be matched to the flow of the turbo capacity of the turbo, even more importantly would be the bottleneck at the TB. Your piping size should be comparative to the opening in your TB.
What are your power goals? Budget? Specific T3/T4 turbo choice?
Your inquiry is so vague...we need more info!
