Ess Three 0 Posted November 17, 2003 That intercooler looks a bit...excessive! Aren't you worried about increasing lag with a monster that size? So, what's the bottom line going to be Struan? How many ponies are you looking for after all the work's done? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
146 Jockey 0 Posted November 17, 2003 How did ya get on Struan fitting the intercooler? Baz. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigTartanJudge 0 Posted November 17, 2003 Hi Ess Three I know it's large and will prob. get a pressure drop, but it's no bigger than a Golf G60 full width intercooler so won't be that bad especially with a no-lag coding chip. I am unwilling to put a figure on possible overall increases, however, I have figures from other owners with the same specs but slightly less mods, and thier figures are quite good really. 146 Jockey Intercooler was a bit of a challenge to fit, Had to use custom brackets and a custom u-bend with Samcos etc but just as well I had the RS bumper otherwise no room for the oil cooler! Bit tigher with standard bumper methinks ! Hers hoping it all works out ok and it gets running! Cheers SCOTCORRADOG60 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
146 Jockey 0 Posted November 17, 2003 Good news Struan, Got the Samcos myself and had to buy a part off VAG also. Didn't realise the extra cost! Lets hope for the 225+ with the mods. Talk to you after the rolling road when the engine and charger are run-in. Baz. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
