I have used a few of their intercoolers on sub 350hp cars and they have been absolutely fine, never had cause to use them on higher powered cars but would recommend them from what I have seen so far.

It's nothing more than a nod at my Ford roots. A Ford badge would have looked daft but using an RS4 badge and losing the 4 means I can use Audi badges whilst achieving the nod I was wanting
