The Wagner performance Intercooler upgrade kit takes the performance of your Audi S3 8L (1.8T) to the next level. This high-performance Intercooler features CAD-optimised air manifolds made from high-quality cast aluminium, which are extremely pressure-stable and ensure efficient airflow with minimal back pressure.
