My aim is around 370ish hp, will a twintercooler be okay?
I've just had a quick peek on ebay and there seems to be some 'specials' for around £250-300 and they're the larger ones. I just don't want to go over my £2k budget lol or else, I'll end up saying to myself 'oh you've spent £100, it's only another £900 away from another grand' which I dont want to do... :stupid:

Won't the rad infront cause airflow obstruction or is it okay like that?
Tfsi_Mike:
I can't bring myself to put chinese copy stuff on my car, in some cases it may be upto the job but in so many cases it's much more restrictive than the branded items. If it turns out to be rubbish it will cost you nearly twice as much in the end.
Im trying to think of someone at stage2+ with a twintercooler.
@vRSAlex and @rtechniki would be able to advise on which coolers work the best on the cars they've tuned (y)
Tfsi_Mike:
Thats how so many of the well known tuned Tfsi's run, the Air con rad infant of that too!
I've removed my aircon rad to see if it gets more air flow to it but now I'm fitting water methanol it is probably irrelevant and just weight saving lol

just came across something interesting

If I can get hold of a named brand for £300ish, I may grab it. I'm just going through the classifieds to see if anything is available.
