Tons of pipework for the turbo to fill up. S3 manifold makes more sense.

Route one of the pipes back under the cooler. Now that I've said it, it sounds not so smart hahaha

How did you do the piping for the pwr cooler? Was considering doing the straight across type too.

I dont know how you will do this with the intercooler outlet on the opposite side to your throttle body

Im also working on a new intake which will go down to the drivers side with the pod behind where the fog light sits, im going to try to hide the MAF, DV and N75 and have it all nice and tidy

Troy, how have you found the new plenum and 'cooler setup?

Thanks for Bumping my thread

Cooler does not make that much difference, only changed it cause i could lol, have also had a boost leak which i have only just found. Car is peaking at 20.5psi now and with my 215/45 Hankook RS3's i cant get traction in the cold so i cant really tell, but she pulls hard.

I will try to get a few things sorted and get it on the dyno to see whats going on and how much power i am making.

Before it just axle tramped, used to get beaten off at the lights by everything

It axle tramped so violently i thought something was seriously wrong
