Intercoolers - Forge VS THS ??
tony_danza:
Really? that's surprising. Maybe someone who'd done it themselves can tell you how easy/hard it is and how long it'll take.
gillm:
forge one would take about a hour defo no more then 2
vRS Carl:
It is straight forwards just time consuming as you have to remove the front bumper and drain the system.
Carl :happy2:
Top Cat:
The forge one is really east to fit, the hardest part will be getting the bumper back on. From memory you have to move one small part which they give you a bracket for. then its simplez. I think i could do it on my own so basically anyone could do it. :happy2:
GTIjames:
I went for the forge as I got it for a good price c£450 - didnt fit it myself but it does look quite easy if you have the tools - jack, axle stands etc and a place to do it.
the s3 used to be a good price but lately Vag part prices have shot up and with with the longer fitting time probably another 1hr+ involved you would be a better off with the forge / ths which gives significant gains over the s3 i/c.
also when you come to sell up you can easily whip the forge off and flog it on - with the s3 / ths its pretty much a fit and forget
