RE: front mount intercooler

RE: front mount intercooler

well maybe you 225 guys will be happy if the kid ever post pics of his tcarbon core. It could be a nice cost effective solution, but only time will tell.

RE: front mount intercooler

anyone know the Forge's and APR's intercooler dimensions?

also are the GTi's // A4 intercoolers similiar to the TT's as in fitment/dimensions wise? (all 20V 1.8T's)?

RE: front mount intercooler

A fwd TT can use a gti/jetta setup with some minor trimming but the a4 is a completly differnt design altogether.

Does anyone have one, do they add power, ordoes it just keep it cooler.

Can't do one without the other really.

yup and APR is more effective at cooling than that....bcuz of the design of the end tanks and core....they also claim the plumbing is better than everyone elses.

I wonder if they have tested theirs against all of the others on the market, or if that claim is just marketing?

uuhhh most parts manufactures make huge claims with little backing. There is very little backing on some products that people buy, just claims.
