A/C condenser fix assistance needed, Intercooler too? 850 1995

Car: '95 850 Turbo.
My condenser took a hit and got punctured. I tried welding the hole to no avail. Can a used condenser be installed? Or are there issues with installing a used "dirty" condenser. I'm told that you have to change the dryer any time the system is opened so that moisture doesn't cause a problem. I thought the evac process removed the air and moisture is that not true?

Any tips in this matter would be appreciated.

2nd question. IF I'm replacing the condenser would it be easy to install a better intercooler at the same time? Anyone have tips on what performance IC to use and costs?

Thanks,
Michael S.
