How worth is it to upgrade? Noticeable performance gains?!? I’m already running SPD DP’s, Adaptors, AFE Magnum, NGauge, MPT tunes.... Should I spend another $1000 on an intercooler?!

I too have ordered the CVF intercooler set-up. I am out of town working, but hope to get it installed in the near future. I also purchased a BOV with the package. I don't know that I will need it, but I figure that since I am down there I might as well. CVF is also not as expensive at <600 dollars, seemingly a quality setup, and much easier to install. If you are not going to increase the boost drastically, I think this intercooler is ideal.
I noticed a disparity in temps since running a tune, and I have my guage set-up to display intake temp and charge air temp. In hot FL, and in boost, the temperature can climb drastically, when you already have 100+ degree intake air. I don't like that. I think it should be much closer to what the intake air temp is. That is why I am getting a CVF intercooler. Everybody that has purchased says it is quality unit.
Good luck on your decision.
Not sure why people user aftermarket BOVs - I've seen nothing but issues with them on this forum.
