Maybe not for now but had some experiences, particularly on hot days even though only running stage 1 with 'heatsoak'
As I undrstand the answer here is more than likely an uprated intercooler.
Personally I like the look of the THS one as it is a direct replacement, used by REVO in their testing and seems to have a good sales patter! However at £600 is a bit steep but probably cheaper than Forge and APR.
I know some have chosen to install the S3 cooler and would be interested in views;
1. Assume like the THS the S3 cooler is a direct replacement (no customisation necessary)
2. If I was to look for one second-hand or from a scrappers (what MK / year S3 would I be looking out for?)
3. Is the S3 cooler a worthwhile upgrade, does it give much more cooling that the std MK2 Cupra one
4. I am assuming that the same THS cooler is offered as an upgrade to the S3 and ultimately a better choice funds permitting.
From what I can work out is the Audi S3 cooler has a slightly larger core, with aluminium tanks, but still with restricted inlet / outlets)
Any views / opinions most welcome
