The high-performance intercooler has the following net dimensions (515mm x 367mm x 95mm [stepped] = 16,5L) and thus offers an 84% larger inflow area and 101% more charge air volume compared to the original intercooler. The newly developed Competition high-performance network ensures that the adjacent components, such as the water cooler, have sufficient airflow. It is a high quality tube fin mesh with internal turbulators.
The end boxes of the intercooler are made of cast aluminum and have been optimized using flow analyzes in the CFD system. With the help of integrated air baffles in the inlet, the charge air cooler is filled evenly, which means that excellent cooling properties can be achieved with the lowest possible back pressure.
In addition, all Wagner intercoolers have an anti-corrosion coating with heat-conducting properties. This guarantees permanent and optimal cooling with a significant increase in performance. Thanks to the new Competition high-performance network, the intercooler weighs only 14,3 kg. It is installed at the original attachment points and is plug & play. Tested up to 6 bar and stable under pressure.
