It was horrible lack of boost pressure in live data when driving and MAF figures well out of spec.

Advised him to refit his old intercooler which he had luckily kept and an hour later he came back after refitting it and it was back to where it should be.

He complained to the company and they refunded his money and said they'd get back to him, they never did.

Fact is you won't get performance by increasing the airflow in the intercooler, all it does is reduce the MAF readings

Hi Russ.
Thank you for posting i am sure it was your post ages that i read, reason for bring back the thread was that a member was thinking of one and i wanted to be sure that i gave him the information about them before he spent his money, as you say have they improved ? i doubt it or we would have heard about it by now surely.

Originals new are non existent as far as i know, and even good second hand ones are hard to come by.
