Will this fit the US version? Not sure where you would stuff that with the front aluminum crash bar.

That is something that should be stated on the site for sure. I didn’t think about that. I mean it’s nothing a reciprocating saw can’t fix right ?

I almost got a Wagner for my Audi, it was a similar setup, IC, RAD and Fan all sandwiched together. It's a nightmare to install and deal with, but it was a staple on the track, so it must not have raised engine temps significantly. Granted, that's how it is from factory as well.

Now fitting it is a different matter... You could try to swap in a Euro/Japanese cross beam, but there is still a beam there, maybe it involves some "light trimming" rather than full removal. It required it on the Audi as well.

Will likely impede airflow to the radiator much more than PRL & Greddy, which isn’t good. IATs may decrease but oil temps will increase. Curious to see some real world testing on it, though.
Where did you find an option from Greddy?

Sick man, love it! My temporary radiator fix shit the bed today so the car is parked until I can find a replacement radiator option and I'm planning to do the intercooler at the same time. Reached out to Wagner tuning to see if they would help me out, waiting to hear what they say.

For those concerned about fitment, here’s how it looks, I’m unsure if the front crash beams are the same but should be a simple fix.

Would it block the radiator or because of its design air should flow thru it to the radiator?
They're still testing, I do believe it will impede some airflow to the radiator but I'm sure they'll account for it. If you aren't comfortable with that, Greddy, PWR, Spoon and few other companies are currently testing their intercoolers as well. You could always go with PRL or J's Racing if you got money to blow.

This intercooler does include charge pipes so that's a plus, everyone else requires a separate kit for the charge pipes.

Looks nice, but it seems entirely too large for the vast majority of applications. In addition, it basically covers the entire radiator and will feed heated air to the whole radiator core, no thank you.

Since K20C1 has overheating issues I wanted to get the PWR Radiator and pair it with a Wagner ic since they are well renown for their cores. This ic is humongous so it's pretty scary to block off the radiator behind it.

Ordered mine today, they are available in limited quantities so jump on it fast if you want one! I’ll post up here again once I get it and install. Been tracking IATs for a while and interested to see if they improve as advertised. CSF radiator has worked flawlessly so far and coolant temps are always below 190. Haven’t seen any oil temps on the cluster info over 198 but I understand that this isn’t a true oil temp reading.
