• 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.

  do you have any pics from inside the engine bay so we can see how you ran your pipes
  
  
  
  also did you or have you noticed a difference with the new bigger IC?

• 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.
