S3 cooler alloy ends or plastic ends does it make a difference?

Core size is what's important. I doubt plastic end tanks make that much difference on identical cores

Pikey Motorsports:
Theres just something what makes you not want plastic ends

audiman:
Early s3 coolers were all alloy, the part number got revised with plastic tanks. However, the core stayed the same. It is larger tubing compared to normal golf/ed30 cooler.

You can still buy the alloy ended cooler from Audi. Wasn't really a revised part, just a change of part.

Hi-jacking this post, is there much difference between the S3 intercooler and the one used on the Golf R20? Having a read there's variations between the two, with the S3 being the biggest core, the Golf R20 being slightly larger than the GTI one but unsure if that's right?
