RE: S4 intercooler

so u want to make a DUAL intercooler setup or something, for the B5s they never had one but in other countries there is a B6 model A4 that comes with DSMICs which people here are putting into their american B6s

RE: S4 intercooler

I would think since the S4 is a six it would have 2 small sidemounts.......No good

RE: S4 intercooler

Seems like a FMIC would have less pressure drop than 2 SMIC's????

RE: S4 intercooler

Yeah I didn't know if 2 side mounts would be the same surface area as a front mount, but it seams like too much trouble for what its worth. Thanks again guys.
