V1.. remove bumper.
V2, which you see here.. remove bumper, radiator, AC condenser, stock IC.
NO THX.

Yea but you dont really remove the radiator or AC condenser, you just support them and move them out of the way. Plus you dont have to deal with trimming 4ft of tubing to get them to fit exactly right. If you use your stock hoses on a S3 and trim them thats one thing, but I saw a thread awhile back about a guy who couldnt get the v2 tubing to fit right. That seems like a major pain in the ass, more so that removing the front radiator support.
I'm sure Modshack can chime in cause he's done this kit.

It's not difficult but it is a PITA

How much more time do you think it would take you (not some joker) to do the V1 or the V2?

Has anyone bought the V2? Could take close up pics if anyone's interested since I do have it sitting in my garage lol.
I have access to a 10 bay garage with lifts, it's more that I don't want do it and I want the IC directly behind the grill. If I was going to buy an IC like the V2 I'd just buy the S3. S3 vs Godspeed V2; S3 is cheaper and OEM.
Now... V1 vs Forge; $500 difference.

I think the V2 (or stock position intercooler) install is way overplayed in difficulty. Seriously the worst part when I did it was that I didn't have the right bolts to mount it and I had to go to the store to get some. Granted, I have torn pretty deep into some cars before, but that's how I've learned...by just doing it. It seriously only took a couple of hours.

Yeah its my work schedule, I read it too and I didn't make sense, but I figured y'all knew what I ment ... i.e. most of u know S3 - EJ - APR are stock REPLACEMENT and that you would not see it along with GSP v2, the v1 would be seen on the bumper and gives it an esthetic look
