Hello!
I’ve tried google about this for some time now but no luck.
Does anyone have a guide or have experience installing a Forge Intercooler on Leon Cupra MK3?

Like some good tips..
Do I need to disconnect the AC?
Do I need to cut the plastic frame exactly the same like the Wagner IC?

I found an Italian youtube video, but I dont understand italian :p
Also I can’t see what IC he uses and I noticed he didn’t do any cutting on the plastic frame.

I already have the Forge intercooler so I dont need any suggestions about buying somethingelse :)

I know it’s been done, just can’t find any guides for it.

Thanks in advance!

Have you looked on the forge website for the fitting instructions for other MQB platforms? Golf Mk7, A3/S3 8V etc

Mk7 GTI instructions here may help:


yes, but the plastic frame is not quite the same and i’m not sure if there are more things that are different.
I’ve asked Forge directly and offically, the intercooler does not fit the Cupra, but they said some tuners have installed it on Cupras, with some modifications but they don’t have any manuals.
I know some tuners here in Sweden can do it.
But I’m looking for a guide so my friend who has a garage can follow it when it’s time to install it.

the do88 and Wagner instructions includes Cupra 5F, i’ve heard that they are pretty much the same in design as the Forge intercooler, but i’m not sure.
Thats why i’m here :)
