Default TMIC and FMIC at the same time?!?

Alright i was looking though a car magizine and they had this dual with old school cars Vs. A Evo and STi. Well the people who modded the STi had a Top mount intercool and a front mount intercooler at the same time!?!? Is that better or just useless?

I'm not an expert or even saavy, but that would be worse unless you had 2 turbos or something. 'kay, somebody school me on this.

That might be an oil cooler in the stock TMIC location.
