Purchased a 2018 TTRS a few months back and looking to do some upgrades.
Just looking for some quick bang for buck upgrades to combine with a modest stage 1/1+ tune.
Looking to get around 500bhp/700nm after completion.
Decided to get:
CTS Turbo inlet 4"
CTS Turbo hardpipe 4"
Sport panelfilter
Stage 1/1+ tune from a respectable tuner
Not yet decided about some parts and looking for some advice:
Turbo oulet pipe.
Bar Tek Turbo oulet pipe or the CTS Turbo oulet pipe.
The outlet pipe has to get loose for installation of the Turbo inlet so why not replace it ?
The CTS has some fitment issues and only has one attachment point where the original pipe has two.
The Bar Tek appears to be a TTE copy and looks like a oversized original part.
Does it bring any gains or is it a waste of money if not going beyond stage 1/1+
Intercooler
It's not really necessary for a stage 1/1+ tune but maybe a few extra horsepower and peace of mind.
Choices are Wagner, REVO, Airtec or HG Performance for an intercooler with integrated crashbar.
But is such a big one not overkill ? Maybe one of the smaller ones would be a better choice ?
There is CTS but unclear if it's able to fit on an european TTRS and the Wagner EVO1.
I did found some copy EVO1 intercoolers, one being sold by MTC in the UK and another by FMIC.EU from Poland.
Perhaps someone have some experience with them ?

Throttle body/pipe.
The APR throttle inlet system appears a nice upgrade, but does it really bring something with the upgrades i have planned ?
And according to some reviews it does not go with the original airscoop ?
Or should i just stick with the CTS Throttle pipe to smoothen out the bends in the original pipe.
034 DSG Catch can.
Appears to be a nice bit of kit, looks nice under the bonnet and no oily residue under the hood.
But is it compatible in the european winter weather ?
