I'm thinking of chipping my 225TT this summer with a GIAC chip but after reading the Facts sheet, it said that chipping the car will increase heat which only makes sense. I have the stock side mount intercoolers in now, but with the chip, will I have problems with overheating? Will an upgrade to a front mount be required to keep the engine cool on these hot, humid Wisconsin days or is there another alternative to an expensive front mount upgrade?

Thanks for any info.

 

You won't overheat the car. The FMIC only cools the intake air after it goes through the turbo. Your SMICs will work just fine, you'll just notice some loss of power on really hot days when you are making a spirited run.

 

Ok, thanks for the help.
