Intercooler Suggestions & Advice

[steverrquattro]

After 11 months the garage have started work on my car and everything is a rush.

They are going to fabricate a bar across the top and one at the bottom that ties the chassis together. Before they do this, they have asked me to get an intercooler sorted.

TBH, never done this before so advice is needed. The engine is an RS2 ADU with 385 BHP chip.

Anyone been there and done it already?

Also, are there any disadvantages in having the inlet and outlet on the same side?

What kind of power are you running. I have RS2 ADU with 390 BHP chip?

Now only original turbo with "some" chip, so 270-280Hp.

My plan is GT3071r (+-420hp) and Im sure this intercooler will handle it.

I see no disadvantage. The air has to turn through 180 degree which isnt ideal for flow but it would have to anyway at some point unless you fit a reverse intake manifold.

The sport quattro IC makes mine look pathetic, I would have preferred not to have seen it :-S
