If you want to do it, go ahead and do it now - otherwise you will have to pull the manifold back off the car and you run the risk of heat cycling the heads on the bolts for the supercharger. (I had the non ic installed for 2 months before making the change, it was a pain).
I would also take the time while the sc manifold is off the car to source some higher quality m6 bolts for the plate and make sure the ports on the back are all tightened down.
As far as power goes, I have the 70mm now and it produces plenty. I've also had it out for extended spirited driving and no noticeable power loss once up to temp.
