stared at it for a minute
Just finished making it a home in the garage![]()
Whew... tore apart the front end of my MK6 today and installed an S3 intercooler. Also cleaned out my AC coil and radiator while I was in there (obviously cleaned AC after the pic was taken).
Took about 3 hours.
After my first test drive I came home and noticed that I forgot to put the inside of my bumper back in! Facepalm! Oh well. Took another 1/2 hour.

should help a little with the heat.

Yeah, I hooned the crap out of it for about an hour and couldn't get it to heat soak. It's only 80 out, but I could heat soak before in these temps doing this. It also adds about 10hp if you are tuned since it flows better. Right now it's stage 2 (intake, downpipe, APR software), and it was surprisingly noticeable.
Internet dyno says 275-285hp with the IC. Butt dyno approves.![]()
Found and sorted out the loose wires/connections for the hall sensor in the distributor. No more stupid timing issues *woot*
