Is anyone else surprised as to where they incorporated the intercoolers? They put them in the intakes that usually re-route air to the brakes for cooling.

I thought I read they did 2 smaller Intercoolers because a single FMIC introduced too much lag and was less efficient.

The intercoolers are in the exact same place as they are in the RS6 and it doesn't seem to have any braking problems.

Just thought it was interesting for it to be placed in an unusual manner, that's all.
