Lmao! Suddenly $350 doesn’t sound bad! Installing the is38 was easier then this looks. I’m bet every one of those plastic clips is a 5-10 minute cuss fest.....
Just DIYed an intercooler for my MK7 R, and this was the most useful video I watched. Really appreciated the "front approach" that helped me avoid draining coolant. Thanks very much!
This honestly doesn’t look that bad of a job. The hardest part looks like taking off the core support, and the separation of the a/c condenser and radiator. Putting the new radiator in looks very simple.
I just started installing my IC last night. Just alot of little steps and things to remove which is annoying but all pretty basic. This video helped. Thanks
I know this is an old video but great work lads. Love your you tube content and shop, I only wish you had a store or warehouse in the UK as I would order so much more from you.
What a painful install this is. Currently doing it to my mk7.5R. You make the yellow clips seem so easy!!! Definitely regret trying to do this my own under isolation
I think this is a great method if you don't want to drain the coolant except it takes more time because you have to remove the whole front end basically.
Fantastic video, thanks for making the effort to show so much detail. I’ve seen other install videos where the radiator coolant pipes were disconnected in order to move everything forward. Is that a necessary step and did you do that in this instance but not show it? Also behind the front bumper, is the S3 8V basically the same as the GTI? ONE more question; many other videos showtime headlights being fully removed. Is this necessary? I’d prefer not to move the headlights due to fear of putting them out of alignment. Thanks :)
What. A. Pain. I felt the pain only looking at the video. Working on the E36 is soooo easy, I might look in another BMW instead of a MK7 GTI. That being said, I love your channel.
Friends often wonder why I am still on the stock intercooler with a stage 2 car making 330 at the tire… This is why. Install is a very time consuming PITA, on top of the $800-$1100 purchase cost for a quality, stock location intercooler. I get to bite the bullet in a month or so. Temperatures are already out of control in Texas. Well into the 90s the entire month of May so far… 🥵 my little VW storm trooper deserves better!
I'd go with a FMIC. Easier install and unaffected by a/c running. Sorry but I like to go fast and stay cool! No need to remove old i/c as I've never seen temp gauge move past 12 o'clock even in spirited driving.
Yes. At 10:18 we see how the the radiator is attached to the assembly. At 3:34 the side air baffle is removed. The top attachment points of the side air baffles also serve as access holes to do what is done in the video at 10:18 without much disassembly. Using a small screwdriver from the back side to wedge into the point at which the radiator clips into the assembly, then a larger screw driver through the access hole to force the locking tab down, and finally a third screwdriver as a lever to pry the radiator from the assembly can work. I am currently doing a radiator replacement on a 2015 (not GTI but TSI). The $700 quote from an independent shop, together with the little bit of what I could find, including this video, led me to believe it was quite involved, but it is not nearly as involved as initially surmised.
For the yellow clips that you said to be careful with. Yea fucking right. Just installing my unitronic intercooler In took me over an hour to get those clips out. Two flat heads nahhh, more like one flat head to depress and a two foot pry bar to try and pull the bracket off. Still an awesome install video.
I’m a beginner “hot shot” car enthusiast and have been slowly modding my 2017 Golf R. I want to install an intercooler and after watching this video…my hot shot enthusiasm went from like 100% to just over 1.5% lol! My first thought is, “This’ll be straightforward!” And then just ten minutes into the video it’s “That’s a lot of screws to keep track of😳”… Final thoughts…”I think I’ll let my mechanic sort through this.”
Great install video! Would have been interesting to dyno the car for and after, to see if the bigger intercooler resuls in any additional Nm or HP. Or does it only help to avoid heat soak in summer?
We ran over something and damaged the radiator. It needs to be replaced. Should I replace it AND the intercooler? Or is it okay to just replace the radiator. I don’t think the intercooler is damaged but it could be. I’m not looking for performance improvement. I just want to get it back into driving condition. Any advice will be appreciated.
Are there additional bolts under the fender liner to remove (m10) prior to popping the bumper tabs out on the fender side? I'm having trouble popping it free and wondering if those two bolts need to be loosened.
I have a 2017 Jetta 1.4tsi is there any chance that a stock GLI intercooler would bolt up? I know the piping won't but I'm just curious if the lock carrier is the same minus the intercooler
@@Deutscheautoparts wish me luck, going deep for a downpipe/ intercooler/Is38/ spark plugs/ turbo inlet swap on my gsw 1.8t as a amateur this weekend..... thank you for your prayers 😂
This is my first time looking at a German car, man that stock intercooler is huge! I guess those Germans really do over enginner everything, I have seen cars making 400-500 with units smaller than that! No wonder they are getting so much power out of just a tune. I am not so sure I would want to upgrade that piece, thicker is not always better, and that thing looks like it has plenty of capacity. Plus a thicker intercooler reduces velocity, and air to the radiator, which is not a good idea when you are making more power and trying to control engine temps. Seems like you would be better off spending just money on a bigger turbo if you really want to go crazy, no? Although more power and lag on a front drive car just seems like a bad idea, even with a limited slip diff. Personally I would just consider doing the ECU tune and enjoy it as is, if you want more get something with rear or AWD.
+Eric Michel There has been a ton of testing that shows that heat soak sets in pretty quickly on stock intercoolers. Also you might want to check out the intercoolers 101 video as it talks a litte more about this. The stock intercooler is a tube and fin design which is not ideal for flow ruclips.net/video/Wk_sHMT58I4/видео.html
Would be interested to see the data from that testing. Replacing the stock intercooler with this one wouldn't address radiation. So it's only better when you're pushing air. I can't say whether the fan can push enough air to show a difference between an aftermarket unit and the OEM unit, but I am guessing no. The car has to be actually moving. In that case, is heat soak as much of an issue? Is this more of an issue for 1/4 mile/street racing, where you're struggling to cool everything off all the time?
I would be interested to see how this testing is actually done myself. I am very skeptical about it because I have seen similar claims from many other folks selling intercoolers, ones that I bought and tested myself and could not reproduce their results, and these had bigger surface area, and were thicker. In some cases they did heat up slower, but the difference was not as nigh and day as they seemed to indicate. I would also be very wary of anyone claiming that an intercooler will increase power. In my experience they do not, but in some cases they allow you to run higher boost, and of course that gives you more power. Most intercoolers don't have anything in front of or directly behind them like this one does. Which makes me even more skeptical of the advantages, and a bit worried about the effect it has on engine cooling. It is surface area, not thickness that gives the biggest bang for your buck, and in that regard this is the same as stock. I would think long and hard before blowing a bunch of money on these "upgraded" intercoolers.
Eric Michel time slips don't lie. Would like to see A/B testing on a race track. Can the stock tune take advantage of a bigger intercooler? Radiation is the big issue, because it's so close to the radiator. Radiation works the same whether or not you're moving. Move the OEM unit somewhere (who knows where) and it would be very effective I imagine. Alternatively, somehow partition the air between the rad and the intercooler. Both would require a ton of fab work. It's almost as if these VW guys knew what they were doing! Also, I was a little confused by the comparison between tune and bar construction. It seems to me like the bar is just what you get when you have to make these on a small scale.
Indeed time slips don't lie, which is why I have never seen anyone claim improved time slips from just an intercooler. In fact if the intercooler were a significant improvement over stock there would be a software tune to go with it, perhaps with even more boost or timing to take advantage of the substantial intake cooling improvement, and yet no such tunes exist, that alone should tell you something. In fact the only real significant power improvements seem to be the down pipe (getting rid of the cats), and installing a bigger turbo. I have seen people with only a down pipe and a tune running times pretty much identical to those who spent thousands more on fancy looking intakes, hoses, intercoolers... I think most of that stuff is a waste of money, very little if any benefit for all the time, effort, and money spent. Plus these added parts tend to cause unforeseen issues and add more warranty risk, and for what MAYBE and 5-10 hp, maybe. I have just as often seen where these parts create false sensor reading that actually cause the car to lose power. But hey at least you reduced reliability and spent thousands of dollars so...
it looks like you just move the condenser a little to get to the intercooler. My little installation booklet is telling me to discharge the a/c to do this job. you think i could get by without doing so?
@@MeltingRubberZ28 oh hey! I managed to do it without. I just spread them a little and there was enough room. The only thing I broke was a fog light connector. Make sure you disconnect them first! Edit: I just realized you didn't ask and I'm accidentally replying to myself. 😅
What size t clamps did you use for the install? I just ordered the AMS Intercooler and want to use them instead of the typical auto store clamps since they are boost pipes.
I need the mounting hardware for the intercooler to connect to pretty much everything but I don’t have it anyone know where I can get mounting hardware please
Did you guys put in a turbo upgrade? I think Revo made an upgraded is38 turbo that seems like it makes crazy power. Have you heard anything about it? Ever considered putting it on? I’m assuming it’s the same process and a regular is38 (with accompanying mods of course)
Hi In this video we have not seen the method of emptying water from the old Also how was the combination without adding coolant How to add coolant after installation ؟؟؟
Good afternoon. I installed a unitronic intercooler on my 2015 jetta tsi 1.8t. along with a USP downpipe and intake. The intercooler, after install, seems to have a very light whistle as I release acceleration down to 2K to 1K rev. sounds interesting but yet concerning. Is this normal?
I installed the unitronic intercooler last summer and for some reason I couldn't get it to fit properly into those holes on the bottom of the housing. I took off the rubber around the holes and it fit and I secured it with some duct tape lol... Now it finally started to rattle, haha guess it's time to take it apart and do it right
very informative video, can u tell the dimension size of Revo intercooler as its not mentioned anywhere on your website and even on Revotechnik website
Hi, i know this video is old (but still decent) i was wondering if its possible to remove the condenser without getting the whole plastic frame out which holds the intercooler, condenser and radiator?, it looks possible in the vid as i can see the tabs but i'm unsure, many thanks.
@@KasamS tbh I can't remember as it was awhile back and my memory is awful lol! But I did replace my intercooler + condenser so it all came out at once anyway, it's actually a REALLY easy job, just takes some time to do it, its really not complicated, I would though go to a place that regases Aircon and tell them you are replacing your condenser yourself, can they empty it then you'll come back for the recharge when it's done (it's the same as they'd do anyway it just splits it into 2 parts so most nice garages won't have an issue) as it's illegal to release the gas and not just that but it is a pressurised system so it's worth getting it emptied first regardless, Good luck with the job!
@@VdubK kl cheers, im also planning on getting an intercooler so will probably do it at the same time, my work has an aircon machine but it'll all have leaked out by then anyway
Its not very hard as this video shows. Butbif you have lane departure/adaptive cruise control then you will have too be a little careful and have that recalibrated afterwards because the bumpers been taken off. Or else it wont work. Atleast not safely lol

wow what a pain in the ass to install. props for showing what it takes
he makes it look so easy though!
Okay so I’ll be paying for this install.

Lol I was thinking the same thing
Lmao! Suddenly $350 doesn’t sound bad! Installing the is38 was easier then this looks. I’m bet every one of those plastic clips is a 5-10 minute cuss fest.....

Yup. If I had a garage, I’d install a lift in it.
So does a 23" floor jack $99 HF

Remove two screws and about a hundred or so clip fasteners. Great video.

Good luck with the job!
@@VdubK kl cheers, im also planning on getting an intercooler so will probably do it at the same time, my work has an aircon machine but it'll all have leaked out by then anyway
How long would it take to do this?
Does this intercooler work with cars that have Adaptive Cruise Control?
+Jon Thompson Yes this should work on those as well.
Hello measures intercooler ? liters ? thanks
+simone di nicola its 23 x 16.54 x 2 = 760in³
What the Heck? what an effort
what stage do anyone recommend for me Golf R MK6? l already installed a cold air intake, down pipe too. any ideas?
Stg1, stg2 of you have bigger intercooler
Would this install be similar to a golf R install
Yup
Even tho I have DAP an no fog lights?
Its not very hard as this video shows. Butbif you have lane departure/adaptive cruise control then you will have too be a little careful and have that recalibrated afterwards because the bumpers been taken off. Or else it wont work. Atleast not safely lol
