1.8t vrs octavia Updated intercooler

[JesseH]

Hi all and greetings from Finland!

 

I have 1.8t 2003 vrs octavia, and i have been thinking to make some upgrades. I have 3" Milltek de-cat downpipe, Milltek 2,5" non-resonated cat-back, and also it has been remapped. I've been thinking to do next some upgrades to intercooler/FMIC. But here's my question: What size the FMIC should be? Does it effect for the diamension that, the front bumper has washer's for the headlight's? Buying a Forge intercooler from Finland is 895,00€, so that's too much.. Does anyone have any option that where should i try to find one for me, maybe ebay or straight from England? You guys have propper companys to buy than we here in Scandinavia. And also, has anyone made run's on dyno to see the effect's before updated FMIC and after installing it? Hope to get good answer's from you. Thank you also from this website, it has been very helpful with few problem's that i've had with my car for now.
