Ready to race!
Ok so im 100% sure i want to get the APR k04 turbo kit and im wondering if anybody on here has the kit and just an intake. Anything else necessary? Intercooler? Downpipe? Btw i have a CBFA motor.
Anybody got the kit with no other bolt-ons? LoL
Well, think about it this way. The S3 has a K04 stock and S3 IC(obviously), which I believe its intercooler is rated to be reliable for about 265 hp. It would be fine if you didn't have software to go with it, but you will most likely notice a drop in power after only a few miles of spirited driving. With stage 2, I notice a drop in power after about 45 minutes of a combo of normal and some fierce acceleration. With the software, I would say APR or similar intercooler would be a wise decision. I'm going to stick with the S3 intercooler since Stage 2 is already pushing the limits of FWD.
