It’s a great upgrade for the s4 if you don’t go further than stage “2+” don’t buy the full kit because more coolant does not fix the heating issue, and takes the same time to heat up with the small amount of coolant. The only thing is to improve the flow itself. If you only drive work miles it’s not really needed but if you like to drive as the s4 is intended the electric pump upgrade and disconnect from the ecu is the best upgrade.
i need thermostat and water pump to be replaced if i upgrade to apr coolant system does it include that or do you still need oem water pump and thermostat???
What tune did you go with? I’m looking at Unitronic stage 3 makes 493hp and 441tq compared to aprs 498 and 444 with the ultra charger. I don’t think it’s worth spending the extra $1000 on the ultra charger for that small difference. IE is another one I was looking at but they only seem worth it if I’m running e40 blend and I don’t lol. Those apr and Unitronic numbers were for 93oct fuel
Another awesome video as always, man will you be doing another follow up on this for further testing of this? I’ve been seriously looking at upgrading mine
IgnitionTube hey so if im just using my car for just for daily driving so if i was interested in getting awe heat exchanger i can just get the heat exchanger without the expanded package? Cause i really didn't feel like spending like 1500 for a whole kit. By the way love your videos keep up the good work.
Looking forward to finally seeing this car in person in the Burgh

MercRacing heat exchangers come with self tapping screws, so no extra drilling needed

awesome video new subscriber here, buying a gti later this year love your vids
Hey, did you record any temperature readings before/after for this mod?
I know this is a old video but I’m trying to figure out if I need a aux cooler for the drive select cars, doesn’t look like you needed it
Yah you do man. I got one for my car (ADS) from CTS Turbo
so you get the part fre and we have to pay for ours? thats very nice....
Probably a newb question, is a heat exchanger like an intercooler for a supercharged car?
It’s like a secondary radiator, carries coolant to the S/C!
Oh gotcha! Where does it sit in the coolant system? Just right after the radiator?
AWE for the win!!
Heck ya!

What I take do you have?
Intake, it seems that ie makes the best one due to aluminum piping where awes is more silicone
With plans from Avasva you can make it really easy.
