Wagner Intercoolers
I can't make my mind up, shall I fit them or not bother (stay Standard)?
I think mine will be on their way out shortly. I think I should but is it really worth the expense?
I will be going cat less or 100 cell max...

RE: Wagner Intercoolers
Worth it. According to one of the dyno posts I read on RS6.com, you should see a 10HP increase from the IC's. I would go cat-less:)

I think the cost gap has narrowed and I imagine they will last longer than OEM.

RE: Re: RE: Wagner Intercoolers
No noise difference at all. And no power increase on a standard map. I know cos I've got 'em and tested before / after 
Still totally worth it for peace of mind. Much much better quality that the Audi crap.
You'd possibly see gains on a car running higher boost than standard, but IAT just doesn't get very high on a standard car.

RE: Re: RE: Wagner Intercoolers
I wouldn't bother with them unless the OEM have failed or you have money to burn - but you will never get any better resale price due to them.
RE: Re: RE: Wagner Intercoolers
There is a difference in noise when you hit the gas, you can actually hear them suck up the air, far better than standard... Mine I could notice at any rate..
