Default not worth it on k03 thats for sure
maybe k04 or BT definitely

but i doubt at 70mph the huge fmic will do alot for you.

An intercooler upgrade is definitely noticeable on a K03 even with stock software.

Default how would you know when I was asking someone else.. stock IC on the B6 is tiny
going to a larger IC does in fact lower intake temps even on a stock car so it would make a difference.

On a chipped vehicle it reduces the amount of timing CF a great deal.
