Was still able to generate 272 HP to the wheels and 322 torque with the defective pipe.Note: Have never 'tracked' the car but I would believe a current dyno would show hp to the wheels in excess of 300.

Note: Had a secondary Custom Oil Cooler installed, since Turbo's are noted for high heat being produced. The unit has a custom machined 'sandwich like' adapter plate that would screw on under the oil filter. Twocustom relay lines were then situated to reach the cooler mounted in frontof the radiator. I then noticed oil flow was being slightly restricted and laterfound out that the cooler should have been mounted vertically and not horizontally. Not knowing this information at the time of the restricted oilflow I removed the sandwich plate and disconnected the 2 hoses, tuckingthem in the right corner, near the passenger side headlight. Did not remove cooler due to the fact that I would have had to remove the front bumper to gain access to it. It can now either be re-connected, using the sandwich plateand reconnecting the two hoses to the 'plate', using the OEM filter with theonly change to the filter being you would have to 'twist off' the large metalscrew that comes with the OEM filter. The sandwich plate can't accomodatethe screw. If not interested in adding this extra-cooling of the oil, you caneither leave it 'as is' or remove the bumper and unscrew the cooler, at whichtime you can also remove the two 'tucked away' hoses. The unit is an expensive, custom designed set-up that cost over $500 for the unit and $500labor to set up the custom installation. For the record, I have never experienced the car running too hot, even on hot summer days, so it is mybelief that the large APR Intercooler, coordinating with the OEM oil cooleris sufficient. Someone who drives the car 'hard' may want to consider reconnecting the custom secondary oil cooler. I don't drive the car especially hard, nor have I ever 'tracked the car'.All maintenace and 'work' concerning upgrades have only been done byprofessional facilities that include:Linden VW Motor Sport Division located at VW Service in Linden, N.J..TyrolSport located in Queens, N.Y.Intermecanica located in Mamaroneck, N.Y.
