Intercoolers - Forge VS THS ??

[Tfsi_Mike]

Would after market anodising black increase effieicncy of our coolers (whichever brand) then?

Its easy to assume black is bad for heat dissipation as mentioned

I guess it would but it won't be as much to remove an already installed IC and let it get anodized.

I dont quite follow you.

Pardon me, Mike. 

1. the intake temperature might be slightly reduced
2. from what I believe it won't be worth the labour if you have to remove the IC
3. you might do it if you're going to change the IC anyway

Thank you

Something I may consider then if the bumper or cooler has to come off in the future

Anyone knows the weight of the twintercooler ? I forgot to weigh mine. S3 is 8kg and the newer Wagner is 10kg !
