The Seat Sport one is cheaper, but tbh not by much. Some people say its a better intercooler as bigger, how size isnt everything
If I was to purchase one at list price, then the SS would be the one if go for.
If however I was looking at a custom, intercooler suited perfectly for BT diesel Ibiza's then id speak to Forge and have my car booked in for end of Jan.

For the PD130 you'll need this one - http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/content.asp?inc=product&cat=190104&product=FMINTSIPD
The Cupra doesn't need (another) one as it has the SeatSport one fitted as standard.

In my very (unscientific) testing with the first cars to have both the Forge FMIC (mine) and the first car to have the SeatSport FMIC (cpufreak's) fitted I couldn't really tell any difference between the two performance wise. That's with both cars having Revo maps, btw.
In normal day to day use I'd bet that other people wouldn't be able to tell the difference either.

I'd be interested to see what results could be got with a straight through intercooler on a mk4, similar to the ones used on the Leon Cupras.
From the dealers, or sometimes they come up on ebay.

Ah goooooooood man good man!
Big intercooler ftw!As said - go for the SEAT sport intercooler with the forge pipework!
To be honest mate, the SEAT Sport FMIC is so good and bolts on using genuine parts, you may aswell just go for that! And it looks 100 times better and will be more efficient than a twin SMIC setup.

Denso intercooler. £50 cheaper than the SS plus the end tanks are welded not clipped.

i have the forge cooler on my pd160 cupra
its on there for a reason i dont know? as its more or less the same as the seat sport (standard on my cupra)
anyway it did the job fine, im running a stage 2 gt20 hybrid and it made 243bhp at p-torque and the intake temps where same as a seat sport or there abouts
