I'm assuming by G60, you mean from a G60 passat, and not a Corrado right?  Just want to make sure people don't go out and buy Corrado parts to add the intercooler, as they are different.

no, i meant either. I don't think they're different. I'll find out though.

I show the corrado intercooler as part number 535 145 805 A
and the Passat syncro as part number 3A0 145  805 A.  Picture looks like the top outlet is different, but I haven't actually compared the 2 side by side.

I'd imagine that if you had the pipes and IC as a matching set, you could make 'em fit.
In any case, it was a passat syncro that these parts came from.
