    So when HM6-S6 is at the side of the road with his RS2'd UrS6 with a split intercooler or cross-over pipe or Michelin Man hose, you will be there to drive him to his destination? Good for you.

      Do the URS plastic ones split? The later ABY and ADU cars have plastic boost pipe over the cam cover v the earlier metal ones.

      I know the plastic intercooler ends are known to dislike high boost.

        Yes it's the intercooler end caps I've heard of leaking.

          The plastic end caps come loose where they are joined to the aluminum core. I have heard of people strapping them with heavy duty zip ties. Best to fit an UrS4 all alloy one & metal cross over pipe if you do not want to go front mount.
