Is an S3 Intercooler enough !!!

(1/3) > >>

Alright i had the s3 cooler fitted to my gti at stage 2 + and i thought it was the perfect choice for a Ko3 car but im not sure if it is going to be the best on a 2+ K04, has anyone got any experiance of this eg heat soak from the s3 at 2+ with a noticable differance from any aftermarket intercooler

iirc the forge twintercooler addition was good enought for jonnyC.

Its all down to personal driving style. If you use the car on track for example. if so an s3 cooler with no doubt not be sufficient. The occasional blip down a dual carridgeway and the s3 cooler will cope ok. As Bacillus said an additional forge front mount will help but for me if your spending that kind of money then do away with the s3 cooler which you could then sell and replenish some of the money for the THS cooler and have in my personal opinion the best cooler on the market. Drive mine hard and not even the slightest bit of heat soak or loss of power. I will be going KO4 soon too and im confident it will stand up fine with the increased power  :smiley:

yea it would of been the THS i was going for, i sort of thought it would need to go tbh are the ths coolers still about the 600 mark ?
