You know that's actually not a bad thought
I mean, provided they stick with the same sort of intercooler setup in the MK8, there is a chance! We got some good results on the 7.5 R's stock tune when we ran the testing! I'm looking forward to publishing these results!
We definitely hope you like the results! The R&D, and manufacturing process can be a fickle beast, and sometimes you run into some roadblocks along the way. We had a few snags in our process which drew the process out a little longer than expected, but we'd rather be a little late than deliver something to you guys that was any less than top-notch quality!
That would be amazing actually. We'll have to work on figuring that out

Sorry for the delay on the officially official announcement guys, but I'm working through a slight technical hiccup with the full kit page. Just want to be sure you guys are able to get the right piping color option
I will have our official results and let you know when that page is working properly ASAP! -Nick

And here we go!
It's been a long time coming, but over the last few months we've run our new intercooler design in the MK7.5 on our dyno, and now it's time to share the results with you. As always, make sure that you head over to the Engineering Blog to get the full scoop!
Even given the less than ideal mounting location, we were still able to vastly improve over the stock intercooling system. With a 23°F temperature drop over the factory components, we were able to see a significant increase in our test vehicle's performance. Make sure that you head over to the Blog to get a glimpse at the bolt on performance gains!
Also, the MK7 intercooler kit is now available on presale, make sure to get in on the special pricing while it lasts!
