Went with EVOMS since the endtanks are designed for more flow than the B6. And better quality to boot. I have both ICs right now and EVOMS wins hands down. Haven't seen Vivid's ICs yet to make a comment.

JMW is infamous around these parts
I've used the Blown 6 intercoolers on several cars and have had no issues with them at all. They work very well on the track as well as the street.

We've also produced a set of our own intercoolers and we should have some pictures available soon.

PM me and I'll make sure you get a set of pics as soon as we have them done.

The B6 are the best value hands down, I am sure some have had issues ,but every manufacturer does. Dmaffo is 100% spot on, you will see them working in Hot days, thats when they do their job.The evom's are a nice piece no doubt about it. It all comes down to dollars and cents.If you want a hook up, PM and i will help you out.Every one has their own opinions and thats what makes this place great, you get to hear the good and bad.

I have the Blown6 IC's and have no issues with them. My shop Protosport was impressed with the quality. I have the "newer" generation ones...

I just put my B6's on and it took a little cutting and grinding to get everything to fit. I'm happy with how it turned out though. I'll know today on my way home from work if I experience any heatsoak.

Hey Powell....I hope you enjoy that ride!Its strange you had to mod anything, the only thing I can think of is the IC mounting locations are different on the 2001 TT Vs the rest of the model years.... maybe thats why???

We actually had to grind the clamp areas because the hose wouldn't go all the way in with the o-ring on. Also the plastic duct on top and bottom had to be cut and widened. I noticed it pushed out the wheel well alittle big maybe 1/2 and inch or less.
