S3 Intercooler Vs THS Intercooler
sub39h:
don't suppose you have your OE one for sale :signLOL:
danishmkvgti:
Well, i have the APR equivalent to the THS, and i have to say i wouldn't be without.
One thing is it helps with heatsoak under loger duration og heavy load, it also keeps my intake temp max. 9 degrees Celsius above ambient temp (daily checked with Polar FIS+ advanced)
Also where you benefit the most, when the car has had a drive and are hot, when you start to drive off again, it really makes a difference in lowering the intake temps fast after the whole engine bay has been heated by the hot engine.
If changing i see no reason for settling for the less effective S3. Same job fitting a S3 and a THS. :drinking:
sub39h:
but APR is tried and tested (and out of my price range)
my specialist thinks that THS is a budget brand and use cheap cores - also above someone writes about how the THS couldn't stand up to the punishment on a dyno
what about water meth? are these not an alternative to intercoolers at stage 2+?
s3dubbin:

Europe K03: S3
Europe K04: S3 < 300 BHP
Europe K04: THS/APR > 300 BHP
Western Australia - THS/APR
