With the same intercooler.:P

if you go for the KO4 turbo upgrade, they fit the S3 OEM intercooler alongside it i think. i think thats where i will end up eventually especialy with the OEM stuff easily pushing 300bhp out.

id be interested to see before and after runs with std intercooler and new performance one though.

it supposably gives you access to closer to peak torque for longer periods of time if im right in thinking that

With the same intercooler.:P

That would just be silly. Stu has an S3 so why would he take his intercooler off and give it to me:P:rofl:
