I'm no scientist but how about this for an experiment: Block the intercooler with cardboard. This should eliminate any temp differences that would or wouldn't cause a pressure drop. Of course, a pre/post temp measurement would be handy, if only to make sure the IC is insulated enough. Then if there IS a pressure drop across the IC then it's because of the physical restriction in the IC. If there isn't a pressure drop, then it's due to a lack of cooling. Just my two cents. I'd hate to see things get nasty here.
