actually it only blocks the lower 4 inches , and the ac condenser blocks more . as for the second ic core .. well then i would have to swap manifolds , TB and mess with a few other things

#40
what you would not want the core is beyond me, it fit the car perfect and required no trimming,
#41
i cant say enough good things about this intercooler set up , even our stock snails roast the intercooler , i fell no differance in spool up and AIT stays good after many hard pulls

I was considering this IC setup but here's a couple of questions before I make a purchase...
1. It's listed at $899, now on sale for $849 on your website. That's not the $795 shipped price at the beginning of this post. Which price is it?
2. Where is the BPV mounted. I can't make out any ports on the piping and the pics don't help explain.
3. Why don't you have good informative pics of this install? You're only relying on customers to provide pics???

Hey Steve,
Thanks for your inquiry, the website price is correct, the prior price was an introductory special, which a number of clients took advantage of. The diverter valve would be mounted in the stock location. We took pics of the kit installed, which in my eyes is much more important than taking a picture of us taking the bumper off or undoing a screw on a diverter valve. It's very difficult for us to have comprehensive pictures of all the intercoolers we make. Unfortunately we're not a large corporation with a marketing teams on staff to surf forums and take cool pictures, although I can appreciate what a team like that could do, but we always appreciate customers posting feedback and photos. We probably need to take pictures/make install instructions for all these kits we build too:

Bro… We had sick MK4 r32 roll in today to have our 3″ MK4 R32 exhaust system installed! Tonys R32 was bone stock before picking up this exhaust, but he wants more power!! Future plans include CTS Turbo R32 Stage 4 kit and complete engine buildup…. Keep your eyes peeled on the CTS Facebook for upcoming builds… Another local R32 Stage 4 should be hitting the streets this spring… If you’re looking for a 3″ stainless steel cat back system for your R32 drop us a line… sales@ctsturbo.com

Stainless steel, Mandrel bent piping, Tig welded construction, 4″ Stainless steel tips, //CTS Embossed mufflers, Laser etched tips, CNC mounting brackets, are just a few of the things that you’ll notice when you look at the CTS Turbo 3″ MK6 GTI exhaust. The performance gains, quality craftsmanship and amazing sound are just bonuses…

Today we had a customer come in complaining that his previous 3″ exhaust wasn’t fitting, exhaust tips were crooked and it was rubbing. You normally don’t expect those types of problems when you spend $900.00 on an exhaust system. Thankfully today hour customer left CTS with our new MK5 3″ cat back exhaust, tig welded, stainless steel, torca accuseal clamps, great fitment and sound… If you’re looking for a problem free new exhaust system that performs as good as it looks then check out our online store. We have CTS MK5 3″ cat back exhaust systems on the shelf, no need to wait months for someone elses exhaust system that doesn’t fit right…

Cool pics but not from the 180fw fmic
Where to mount the map sensor in this kit? Pics of the piping?
You should spent some more time to give us the information we need.
#58
the map sensor has a bung under the headlight in the stock ic location, i have been running this kit for some time and love it , i will happily give you any and all pics you want . the only issue i ran into was there is no set up for a dv, i took and made a 4 inch section to go between the turbo and ic pipes as i could not bring myself to cut the nice pipes up , i used the stock outlet pipe , so it was free
