Intercoolers are there. Should be plenty of room behind the bumper's center grille.

Default I fit two Hella horns on one side, but it was tight...

I think moving to air horns might be tough, but nothing is impossible.

Why did you put two on one side?

Default mostly it was the mounting bracket...

...i reused the OEM mounting bracket. I had to remove my driver side mounting bracket to fit the RS4 intercoolers, so I just doubled up the horns on one side (passenger side still had the mounting bracket).

Could have made a new bracket, or modified the orginal one, or just used the fairly simple one supplied with the Hella horns, but this seemed like an easy way to solve the problem.
