Anyone seen aftermarket intercoolers anywhere?

Dubdr · 04-11-2006, 08:14 PM

ABD has a advert for one, I just haven't seen it on their site.

Really no need for anything bigger with a chip mod. If you go BT and lots of thrust that might come into play.

I would just be happy with replacing some of the restrictive tubes on the intercooler.

A couple of threads on this here recently. The Eurojet is the way I am going eventually. Lots of debate on what this may or may not do for you. There is a lot to be done before an IC that provide bigger bang for the buck, but it is on the list.

The guys, Joel and Johnny, at Eurojet are some cool cats too. Very easy to deal with and funny as hell. They are actually working on a project for my subcompact BMW

I would like some input, wich would be better, forge or abd, both are good just wanted to see what my fellow dubers thought

BlAcKwIdOw29 · 07-25-2006, 07:04 PM

I know that forge had a GTI on display with a fmic on it. Don't know if its available yet though. Try their website and maybe you'll have some luck.

hensley01 · 07-25-2006, 08:57 PM

well i got lucky and found a guy that can order it from a big distributer in the UK

eurojet does have a very good system as well but i dont really know much about them, but i am starting to think that would be my best bet

Wantagti · 07-26-2006, 11:32 AM

That thing picks up 30 wtq during the first few hundred rpms, pretty awesome numbers after looking at the overlay. I think intercoolers are overpriced, but what do I know about what they cost to make. Looks to be worth it for several reasons.

well i have all ready got every thing else that is for the gti if anyone has any mods out there let me know
