Which intercooler?

BigA91:
Which IC do you use guys run?

I'm booked in for a stage 2+ and I was wondering should I get the one that are small and which use your existing IC or, do I get the one which replaces your actual big main one and sits before your AC rad etc.

BigA91:
anyoneee?

Tfsi_Mike:

The latest revision PERON cooler seems to be the most popular atm.

A lot of people opt for the S3 cooler (the earlier one with alloy end tanks) as its cheaper than most aftermarket ones.

I have the APR one which is expensive but seems to do a good job.  I would be happy to fit a PERON from what Ive seen.

So Mike, you recommend the big ones which replace the main cooler?

Tfsi_Mike:

A fair few people have used the 'twint'ercooler in the past using a second front mount intercooler.

I bought my APR when I was flush (before I was married with a little one, dog and 2 cars to run lol).  I would happily run the Peron and THS coolers as they have been proven to perform.

@toosmiles  and @Jussa  have the Peron, Ive not come across anyone with the APR before.

Around Xmas time i should be able to make a rough comparison between the APR and Peron as I will be having my car mapped and it is identical spec to a mates car @Bignod00, like for like all but the cooler.  He has Peron, I have APR
