The Iroz intercooler does however need a US crash bar on UK cars. It is around £150. Thats probably the only downside, mega cooler though!
My only problem was the shipping charges View attachment 156274
The Iroz intercooler is the best in the market at the moment. Real Garrett core. Not something from a Chinese catalogue.
The Wagner core is huge and I wouldn't fit one to my car again. Due to the amount of air that needs to be pressurised across that core there is noticeable lag, this is more noticeable with a bigger turbo. I didn't actually realise how much this affected my car until I went back to stock intercooler with the big turbo in situ.
If all goes well this year I'll be building another TTRS to circa 700hp, full Iroz spec. I can't wait!
I can't decide which way to go with the IC. My plan is to go for a TTE500. I have seen a car with TTE500 making around 500 hp on the stock IC but it can probably only do that in one pull.
What is your opinion on the Hperformance IC? It has about the same volume as the Wagner.
Do you know if it is necessary to remove foam and plastic trim from the bumper? (Like the Forge IC).
1000hp core for a car that will see 550hp is overkill, you introduce lag/pressure drop! STM cooler would be good for the extreme builds though!
This was my preference but all suppliers I've tried (including Forge) are quoting a 4-5 week lead time. I have my car booked in for mapping on the 23rd July.Lots seem to use forge and get very good results.

Wagner appear to be listening to the critics that the RS3 does not need much extra in the way of intercooler volume for the lower end tuning, and released this smaller model with only 57% increase in volume:

Apologies to all - I am afraid that the German distributers do not make it as clear as the UK that the intercooler at 650€ is for the older RS3...BE CAREFUL!
The new Wagner i/c is only 650€ from Warner Germany, and £561 from AP Tuning UK.
Wagner UK are ripping you off with their £775 price....

Has anyone purchased this as of yet?
Looking in to an intercooler from having spoken to Eco tune after my stage 1 APR and interested in tad more power as well as keeping the cars performance consistent. Will this still perform as well as those prices at 1300 from Wagner etc?

Installed Wagner EVO3 , I live in Malta in a hot and humid climate , this gave a better punch and I am sure its doing it job very well , before installing this I was having my IAT at 65 Deg which is way too much , now I need to log again , and btw.....I didnt notice any Turbo Lag either , and car is running REVO 1+ Beta Map
Fitting was easy too and without any issue
Sorry to post something off topic, but what does the revo 1+ beta map have as extra?
Yes, I bought one, but not yet fitted it. It is on my list of things to do on a rainy day.
