What intercooler would you recommend?

[Audi TFSI]

Currently running around 240bhp and was thinking about changing my intercooler to get anywhere between 260-280 ... I want to get 300+ in the future but I'm trying to do the cheaper stuff first. What intercooler would you guys recommend and what gains have you had from yours ? Plus what would you think I'd need to get 300, had a stage 1 map and had a custom exhaust fitted.

Audi A3 2012 8v 1.8tfsi 180.

Get a standard S3 intercooler.

Probably a few going spare too after S3 owners upgrade their intercoolers, so you might be able to pick one up comparatively cheap.

I upgraded mine to a Wagner intercooler but depends on what your after and how much your wanting to spend.

What gains did you get? I'm not bothered about money really if it has to be paid I'd rather pay that bit more for a new better intercooler, did you upgrade from your s3 stock?

I haven't had and dyno runs but I'm Revo stage 2 and it was a requirement. Wagner are one of the best so I went for that.
