If you Google it you will see where in December they were asking to borrow cars to fit.

Hi,some great cobra exhausts on ( you tube) I like the look and sound from the green vw scirocco and same engine as my vrs cthe.(also the green focus rs).

It is not a CAVE / CTHE engine in a Sirroco is it.  Lower Powered 1.4 or a variety of various 2.0 TSI

[Ant-Vrs]

Here's a link to one

[sharkrider]

looks good! a decent price too!

[MillsyVRS]

I'll be bummed if it produces good power, seeing as I've just bought and fitted a forge one :L

Although the airtec claims it takes hours to fit! The forge only takes an hour?!

[Ant-Vrs]

I like how it's taller but I don't like the look of it as you can see it. I like it looking oem with forge one.

[Ant-Vrs]

Here mine with the forge one

now for the airtec one

[tattyjay]

Hmm, because it is taller it's covering the radiator up. Do you think this will make the radiator less effective and the radiator warm the intercooler up more which would defeat the purpose?

[MillsyVRS]

Forge, APR and Wagner have all gone for the same sort of design, so I'd imagine they probably know what works best? I also like the OEM look of the forge too.

[thomasaspin]

so everyone thinks this wont perform as good as the forge intcooler ?

[tattyjay]

Not sure, the gains aren't big anyway. Certainly not double figures.

The intercooler ends are really big and maybe stop the radiator from being as good as it should be.

[VrsGeo]

Do we have any reports on this intercooler?

[sharkrider]

dont think anyone has run it here yet.... I will try it when the time comes
