Re: Intercooler Upgrade Using 00\' S4 Intercooler
Let me suggest you get the car dyno'd before you make ANY changes... and plan to use the same DYNO for all your tests... Otherwise, you won't know what you started with (power wise)...
Which vehicle are you planning to chip? I hope it is the '99 cause Garrett hasn't done a Y2K chip yet..
If you are planning to get a magazine run, you will need really solid performance figures (0-60, 60 feet, 1/4 mile time and speeds)... If you are planning to body kit the car, it is less important....
You've said you are planning to use the BBS wheels cause they are lighter... Don't believe everything you read... Measure the stock wheels (or search out here on the forum, stock wheel weight has been talked about) and the new ones...
Too bad you don't live out here in Georgia, it would be really fun to work with someone who is planning on all these changes...
Best of luck!

P.S. Start looking NOW for the best fuel you can find (50 cetane if at all possible) and find some good additive for lubricity and cetane boost (I use Redline Plus 85, may not be the best but does well for me).
