For those who doubt whether to buy it or not: I have it in an Audi TT 8N3. It can be approved as long as you don't remove the nerves from the hood. It reduces, in my case, between 5/7 degrees the water temperature. I have used it to let the heat out of the engine compartment and it shows a lot. To finish the lap earlier at 110/112°C and now finish it without it rising above 105°C.
Plus it cools much sooner. If before it had to do an entire lap cooling, now it's halfway through the circuit and even before that it's already cooling down.
The only drawback to looking for one is that the hood of the tt is not flat, it curves and you have to make that curve in the grille by bending it a little. This is almost more of a problem with the car than with the grille. But what can you expect from Germans who put the gearbox screw behind the air conditioning pipes... Otherwise it's perfect.
