Got a quote from Seat - with all the bits listed on the thread is comes to £887.17 inc VAT!!! Does anyone know what sort of performance increase you can expect?
you could probly get a forge intercooler for that much. ive herd with other suitable mods u can get around 20bhp from the intercooler aswell. however thats wat i "herd". it ll prbly just drive how ur car drives when its cold

Not enough to justify that figure! 10-18bhp max? As zedzo said you could probably get Forge for much less herefore making the upgrade more cost justifiable. A recommended upgrade IMHO but not at that price!
What engine is it for?
Teh seat on is alot better than the forge one, it's slightly bigger and in general is a bit better
If your just wanting an intercooler for a bit of performance then i'd go for something like a Focus ST one, it's small but effective and you can pick them up for ~£50 on ebay and then another ~£75-100 on piping and it's done.

What intercooler is on the VRS Pip? is it that same as the polo or is it more like the cupra's?
as it's a single pass i would need to run the pipe back on its self. (thats what will cost most)
tbh it's only a little bigger in surface area than the standard SMIC, but been on the front will be 100 times more efficient.
imho looks good too..
