Default Chipping?

Are there anyother mods that are important to make after chipping? I have heard that chipping leads to extra engine wear and further problems down the road and a remedy for this is to add an innercooler. Is this true?
Where can I get a innercooler for the A4 1.8t B5 anyway?
Thanks in advance

Default Let the turbo cool down regardless..

give 1 minute for normal slow driving.
give 2-3 mins for agressive driving.

You have an intercooler already.. it's located bottom front drivers side under the light behind the grill.

Yeah, you see that silver radiator looking like thing? That's your intercooler.
