Intercoolers - Top-Mount Vs. Front-Mount - Which is best?

This Question of the Week is what is the difference between a Top-Mount Intercooler and a Front-Mount Intercooler, and when should you switch? Pretty much all modern Subaru's use an air-to-air intercooler to cool down the intake charge before it goes into the engine. And all of those cars have a top-mounted intercooler (TMIC) that sits on top of the engine, and draws air in from a scoop in the hood. So how good are those intercoolers really? And when is it beneficial to switch to a Front-Mount Intercooler (FMIC)? And what are the benefits and drawbacks of each option?
