Title: Intercooler Options
Post by: JakEd30 on September 03, 2018, 02:15:18 pm

Hi,

New on here..

I know there's posts out there but they have confused the heck out of me.

I've got a ed30 its for a Forge Front Mount I believe. (Small one on the front lol)

I was told to get it Stage 2+ ready I will need a Welly cooler?? I was also told if I just upgrade the intercooler behind the plastic one?? to Audi s3 8p it will suffice

Can anyone help?

I've also been given a link to one on eBay for £95 its 600x700x76mm if I buy that does that mean I have to lose the forge intercooler?

Thanks Jak.

Audi s3 intercooler will suffice probably up to 500hp, but an aftermarket one from peron, wagner, ths etc will be better still but not required unless you MUST have the best

controversial opinion i imagine but the forge twin cooler should suffice. ive seen people make good power with either that or the airtec version.
