emperical benefits to RS4 intercoolers?
Has anyone provided documented improvement with RS4 intercoolers vs. stock? I am looking for realistic intake air temp reduction.

can you pls elaborate re: less effort (more)
So the RS4 intercoolers will flow more air without significant pressure drop vs. stock, all else being equal?
Will the flow rate exceed the range of the stock MAF (housing)?

did you have to
cut/grind or fabricate anything to fit the RS4 IC's? I notice you have the RS4 bumper, wonder if the gill vents provide added airflow through the IC's vs. just the panel in the wheel well.

It is possblie to fit them under the OEM bumper...KAOS, AZ (Papa Smurf) did it.
Here are some pics of the flow thru the gills.
and the piping/hoses&clamps were perfect from JoshD at Achtuning.com I believe that Papa Smurf had developed them with JoshD, and that's what was used as a guide to the Samco sets that come with the RS4 IC kit now.
