    Tiguan S3 Intercooler Install Guide

    Found this post while digging up stuff for the intercooler installation guide:

    It looks like the intercooler is different (and some of the plumbing) & the rear exhaust is also different, looks like the intake is the same & most base parts are the same though!
    So as suspected the 125 and 147TSI do have different intercoolers and means that upgrading intercoolers on a 125TSI is going to provide a greater benefit - which is also what I have discovered. This benefit is going to be even more pronounced at stage 2 and release those kW being sucked out by an overly restrictive intercooler.
