I'm looking to get a front mounted intercooler, but i'm not sure which one to get. i lie this one http://www.atpturbo.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=ATP-INT-003&Category_Code=INT but i'm wondering if there's a better one out there for a better price.
If anyone has any suggestions i'd appreciate it.
thanks

10" is way too tall. It will not fit behind the bumper. If you don't have an upgreaded turbo, you will lose power.
Edit- I got my greddy fmic for $50 more than that HERE (http://www.racingworks.com/greddy_intercooler.htm).
BE WARNED: IT IS A COMPLETE PAIN TO INSTALL. There are no instructions. You have to cut half of the bumper reinforcement and parts of the bumper. If you have a secondary air pump, it has to be relocated.

my opinion: if you drive your car with original turbo and original software this is oversized... the performance in the lower rpm will surely not become better...

i have the same car and same color like u,i have a precision front mount but it is costy about $580.00 dollars but u have to cut alot from the stock bumper so i went and bought myself a s4 front bumper which works better and looks better on that car.if u put a front mount on your car u need to doo some mods on the intercooler piping.

i already did the intercooler piping,clutch ,injectors and biger mass air flow sensor.i just bought my s4 bumper from the dealer for $498.00 dollar i haven't had time to put it on yet. my friend has a s4 bumper on his a4 and it looks great, did u have to cut much from the s4 bumper,if you are going to put a front mount just might as well spend the extra bucks and get a good intercooler cheap is not good ,i did bought a cheap one and a manifold on ebay but they break into pieces thats my problem now . i need to find someone to make me an exhaust manifold,thanks for the heads up peace.
