92 intercooler questions

I have a couple questions that I would love some information about. #1) How much leakage is acceptable in your intercooler? I recently preformed a leak test on my intercooler (soapy water, blank 2 1/2" plug, and 1 plug with valve stem) I reduced my air line to 15psi and gave a small shot of air. My neighbor how I had watching for bubbles, says "uuuhhh!" I said "uuuhh what?" I walked up front to find 30-40 bubbles all over the fins on the intercooler!
Obviously it holds no air pressure. I do believe my truck has the 21cm turbo and without pulling anything I can get the boost up to around 8 (up a steep grade). I then began to look for a new one. Dodge does not make them anymore. I then went to Banks Yeah! they have it!$900.00 for the techni cooler, boost tubes, boots... I bit the bullet and ordered it (special order 2-3 weeks. I then got and e-mail: "We regret to inform you the Banks part you ordered (25952) has been discontinued. If you could contact us at your convenience we can get a replacement part (if available) and take steps to resolve your order. Again I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. Feel free to visit our message boards and website to talk to other customers or browse other parts we may have to replace this one." Which brings me to the #2) question. Anyone know where I can get a replacement if necessary?
