Stock turbos cause pretty hot intake temps compared to upgraded turbos.
I have not ever heard of anyone losing transient response or spool or lag from putting a larger intercooler on with stock turbos. Atleast with a larger intercooler you will keep the intake temps under control. The wagner should be easier on your turbos but its bloody expensive. I would get one off BMS. The Pheonix intercooler. If you really want a tube and fin intercooler it would be nearly cheaper to get a plazmaman intercooler custom fitted over getting the wagner evo 3. You might get 5-10hp better with the tube and fin in some parts of the power curve on stock turbos but is that worth the extra cash? Bms pheonix would be my choice. |

Certainly comes down to budget, but having swapped the IC many times to cope with power changes, now I would stump up money to do things right the first time so I wouldn't have to change it again and again. Go the tube and fin Plazmaman custom.
