Could people that are running coolers post pics of their setups, that is if they aren't top secret?  I want to see some engines too if you would be so kind?  Thanks everyone.

I'm kinda proud.  I built this whole setup myself.  The whole truck is still a work in progress.

Lots of pics, obviously lacking intercoolers. I'd post mine, but since it isn't in a VW, it probably wouldn't help you much.

There are pics of the engine compartment, scroll down...

It's a little different now as I installed a G60 valve cover and a Neuspeed strut brace so I had to make some changes.

No I didn't really notice a difference with the larger cooler. The EGTs dropped a little but performance wise I didn't notice anything.
