    This intercooler kit looks fantastic.

    No wonder Grizz is installing a ton of these.

    WOW. I like it.

    Did you see the price for this kit at 034 motorsports? Somewhere around $1900 if I remember correctly. Not too bad, definitely a lot easier to swallow than the price of the Sportec kit.

    Hard to gauge IC performance gains.

    Lots of data work needs to be done.

    Maybe the Wagner folks that posted the pic can chime in.

    Who cares when it looks that sexy, fits like stock and has that carbon intake blade. Wow

    We have a Lot of Data on these, just need to find some time to put the in a Table and make a Graph.

    There are a Lot of Customers with our Intercoolers now and tey seem to be quite Happy with our Coolers. maybe some of them will Post there Experience here. Some of our German Customers did it on rs-quattro.de

    Did you know, that almost 90% of all RS6 Coolers are Broken?

    Because RS6+ and US Models, have some additional Watercoolers behinder the Intercooler. They need some additional Brackets. And these are Premounted with Rivets.

    Interesting. No RS6 have these additional coolers? Even those with hot weather kits? If so, how can I tell which ones I need?

    OK Cool; but I'm not in the US and I suspect my car has the hot weather kit. How do I know? Or will the RS6+ IC also fit the RS6?

    you just need to find out, if you have some small watercoolers behind your intercooler... Maybe look for Waterlines, you need to look from underneath, thats the best way to find out.

    That's quite an impressive difference. It would be interesting to see what the results are like on a standard car though. There must be many RS6 owners who want to replace their OEM intercoolers with something better built but not necessarily bigger.

    With bigger intercoolers, I'd be worried about increasing lag on the standard map.
