As greggles said, not much proof they actually gain any power, but I do think there is a benefit to them so I'm curious how yours do!

If only you were like 960 miles closer! How are you liking your intake so far?
Same! Our engineer, Ye, has been at it for the last three days tearing down our loaner Golf TSI, checking our fitment prototype, and working with the fabricator to make some mock-up piping to get the design just right. Looking forward to having the completed samples back for testing!

I'm in the area with full bolt on car around the West Chester, PA area. PM me what you're looking for and details.

It looks like we might have one lined up already, but I will definitely shoot you a PM if that happens to fall through!

Interested in a direct fit engine oil cooler setup and DSG oil cooler setup.

I'll pass along the request for the DSG cooler, and check up on the oil cooler as well!

Hey Guys!
The blog is live! Head over to our Engineering Blog to check out the stock review on the MK7 intercooler!
I don't have to tell you guys about the efficient use of space the Germans always put into their vehicles, and the MK7 is no exception.In this case, they made a sort of intercooler sandwich by squeezing it between the AC condenser and the radiator.
While the stock intercooler is good enough for daily driving unmodified GTIs and Golf Rs, it becomes a restriction point once you start turning up the boost. We have a bit of an extra challenge since there's not much more room to expand into.
Stay tuned for our design plans, and also updates on the piping as well!
