    He said it costed 395 euros - but only the pipes are in that Forge kit.



    @Stuey: I think this is the part number for the seat intercooler : 6LL145804

    is total, pipes + intercooler was a bit les than 750€.
    intercooler from forge cost me abot 1000€.
    the intercooler from matorcade cost about 1100.

    on a stock engine, it's a bit overkill maybe
    i don't think he drives different or slower or more "laggy",
    but once it's chipped it will make all the difference

    btw, here are the rest of the pictures...

    Had a reply from Forge over night (must say I am supprised):

    "Thanks for the email

    We do not have much information on this kit as it was conceived by the SEAT forum members who just bought our race part accessories . I have attached all the info I can find .

    I have no fitting instruction nor any other advice , the cost is to you ( discounted as your are in Australia ) would be £ 200 GBP + potage

    let me know if I can help further "

    Here are a few photos of the kit:






    By the time we arranged for a group buy discount and freight, unless we could avoid VAT, don't think its going to be worth it...

    im thinking that kit might work for the other intercooler cores from frozenboost.

    anyone else see how it could work?

    Its a bit hit and miss.

    By the time you get it landed, it would probably be more expensive than locally made alternative...

    Also, if its not quote right (no doubt it won't suit exactly) then it may need some serious customising.

    im thinking what we need is dimensions for the SEAT intercooler to compare with the frozenboost one. i tried looking for a bit but i could not find anything.

    price would be lower im thinking aswell and probably install could be DIY if people have a bit of car knowledge/know someone with some.

    core=340 delivered.

    piping from forge= 450?

    well under 1000 for a great bit of kit.

    That does sound pretty awesome for a large core system.
    Plus it has been done so you know it is doable.

    Someone should do it to see how it goes in the Australian Climate.
