Background: Prior testing of some duct configurations to determine their effect on the turbocharger inlet air temperature evolved into testing a pair of popular open-style intakes. In this post, I discuss using an Eventuri closed intake with an MST silicone inlet hose and recording pre-turbocharger air temperature during full-throttle acceleration to compare with the other […]

Background: The G-Plus intercooler is a small front-mounted intercooler (FMIC) that has silicone connector hoses with a branch that connects with the Mk7 GTI stock location intercooler to form a bicooler. Of the bicooler setups that I have tried the G-Plus is the first that I have encountered that uses a Tube and Fin style

Background: Previously the stock Mk7 GTI radiator was flow tested. In this post, a flow test with the CSF radiator is performed to measure the airflow through the external fins and compare the results with the stock GTI radiator. For reference, the CSF radiator weighs 12.2 lbs. Test Procedures: The airflow through the external fins
