My own feelings on the Lagune IC is that it works and is a hell of a lot better than standard, for a relatively cheap cost compared to the Forge 'kit'.
Wether it's as good as the Forge, probably not. I say this because my friend had the Laguna one on his, myself the Forge and mine pulled slightly harder top end in comparison. My friend ended up replacing his with the Forge kit and was happy(ier). Looks came into as well but that's down to personal preference.
Anyone with a K03S with Laguna intercooler know what their torque figure is?
My friends car with the Laguna IC on it made about 250lb ft. Once replaced with the Forge kit, it made 280lb ft (ditto for mine).
I don't mean to take anything away from the Laguna set-up, as for the cost of the whole thing it certainly takes some beating in the VFM stakes.
Just my 2p's worth (flash - no offence bud).
See, more of a discussion than sarcasm and digs, makes a nicer thread lol
Interesting what you say tho, specially the torque figure change....but I guess I can sacrifice (if its the case) 30lbft and keep some pennies lol
