Intake air temperature means
everything in a forced induction engine. The cooler the air, the
more air and fuel you can pump through the engine, making more
power! And as you put more boost to the engine, or demand more
performance from it, the heat load increases - thus the need for
better cooling of the intake air charge.
Unlike most aftermarket intercoolers
that replace the factory piece with a more efficient exchanger in
the same location, the Active piece is taller, giving more surface
area, which is the most critical dimension affecting intercooler
efficiency. The Active Autowerke intercooler kit increases the
intercooler's capacity by 88% and places the unit directly up front
for even more efficient cooling. Tests show a 30 degree temperature
drop at the intake manifold with a gain of 12hp at the
wheels.
Highly suggested for track driven
cars due to excessive engine operating temperatures after only
short on-track stints (heatsoak).
Kit includes: intercooler, powder
coated piping with silicone hoses and clamps, mounting brackets,
and Active's excusive air diversion plates.
Features:
- Largest intercooler surface area
available
- Bar and plate construction is
ideally suited
- Efficient tray design optimizes a
ram air cooling effect
- All airflow is channeled directly
into the Active intercooler
- Dyno tested not to have any
substantial boost loss
- Dyno tested for minimum pressure
drop across intercooler
- Maintain power and performance
under most conditions
