Just had a quick look on awesome gti and can get an S3 Intercooler and hoses for under £350 so not as bad as I thought!

apparently the s3 cooler is good for 500hp!
so you dont really need anything better eg THS/APR/Eurojet, I only fitted the Twintercooler as my car was only making 319hp and fitting it with the s3 would allow timing to be increased. However, part of the low power was down to a boost leak by the Neuspeed ko4 pipe

500hp :surprised: I'm not planning on going that high!
315-320hp will do me as my Ed is a daily, I'd just like a little more power on tap for using around the air field at work ;)

I would say no. Best saving your money and going for the Eurojet IC. My tuner says it is the business as do many on this forum.

How did you identify this? Was it through a garage and if so what one? I still think there may be a slight leak somewhere on mine.
