VW Golf Mk7 GTI / Golf R / Audi A3 S3 8V 1.8T 2.0T 70mm Competition Intercooler - Black

Product Overview

This 70 mm competition intercooler is listed by the supplier for the Volkswagen Golf Mk7 GTI and Golf R and the Audi A3 and S3 8V with 1.8T and 2.0T engines. Finished in black, it is designed to replace the factory front-mount intercooler with a larger unit to help manage intake air temperatures on tuned engines, where heat soak can limit performance during repeated hard driving. However, the specification data supplied conflicts with the title, so fitment must be confirmed.

Vehicle Compatibility

The listing title names the VW Golf Mk7 GTI, Golf R and Audi A3 / S3 8V with 1.8T / 2.0T engines. The specification sheet, however, lists 2008-2013, diesel 1.6 TDI and 2.0 TDI engines and universal fitment. This information is supplier-stated, conflicting and has not been independently verified, so please confirm fitment with us before ordering.

Installation and Usage

Important Fitment Notice

Because the supplier data is inconsistent, it is essential to check compatibility first. Front-end changes must not affect safety sensors and the vehicle must meet WoF requirements. Please send us your VIN or chassis number and we will confirm fitment with the supplier before you order.
