Did you notice a big difference when you fitted a new intercooler?
berg:
meant to say you might be able to up your timing to 6, which is what will give you the extra power

What was a lot stronger berg?? More torque?
GrayMK5GTI:
Intercooler is more about maintaining power on hot days rather than gaining any more - especially on a dyno :happy2:

no less torque actually, more top end power as Timing was upped from 5 to 6 although if you are only fitting the Eurojet intercooler it would be up to your tuner to see if there was enough headroom to safely up the timing in such a way.
As said, fitting the intercooler wont give you any extra power at all. It just might allow you to alter your settings which will give you more power :happy2:

Noticed a difference going from s3 to THS, rev'd alot free'r!
Probably due to the size of inlet/outlet... flow alot better, and this alos means turbos not working so hard.
