Whats the difference between the old and new aircon condensor? Is it one off the Mk6?
Surely if you disconnect it the system will need regassing?

Is there a link to Uprated S3 intercooler you are referring to? I had a look at their website but couldnt see any kits that would fit the GTI just diesel stuff  :happy2:

Got it today, @xjay1337. :wink:



Maybe i am reading it wrong but aren't the pipe upgrades for TDI engines ?, i think you said you had a Eddy ?

"We also produce Hard Pipe Kits for various TDI models which removes all of the clip connectors. Please see below"

"When fitting a Genuine S3 Intercooler to a TDI you would remove the clip connectors from the standard pipes and slide them over the 57mm Inlet / Outlet. Whereas with the Upgraded S3 Intercooler, you require these hoses to fit over the larger 70mm Inlet / Outlet"

Looks good value for sure, have anyone else got one of these ?, and feedback on the performance compared to say the Forge or THS ?

You have 3 options for the boost hoses. I chose the one for the TFSI engine.  :wink:
