Paradox1:
I dont think there is anything wrong with the S3 intercooler. just the recover time isnt as quick as larger core coolers which is understable.

Not something youd notice on the road anyway

Absolutely on your second point, except perhaps if you're giving it max beans for half an hour on a 35 degree day, but how often does that happen in the UK?  :grin:

Giant intercoolers are fine on the track where you're at max throttle 100% of the time.  On the road, you're at max throttle 5% of the time.

Paradox1:
agreed.

I only got the wellycooler to future proof me if I ever went big turbo lol

pudding:
That's fair enough.  I couldn't be bothered with the fabrication work for welly boots, and APR, IE etc intercoolers were too expensive for essentially what is an S3 copy......so genuine S3 it was!

Paradox1:
Its really not as much work as people think tbh.

had mine on in a few hours. wasn't to bad at all but I can see why people want a plug and play solution
