An in-house designed performance intercooler from do88 for an easy drop-in-fitment in your Audi Seat Skoda VW 1.8 TSI / 2.0 TSI (MQB).

This intercooler is constructed to deliver the ultimate cooling efficiency under tough conditions! Exclusively manufactured in aluminum with continuous welds, it guarantees reliability and endurance when you really need it. The increased core volume improves cooling efficiency and lowers the intake air temperature. Naturally, this being a do88 performance product, we have executed thorough, stringent and continuous tests whilst developing this product to ensure the best possible performance. No compromise has been made! This intercooler is absolutely optimized to the given space for an easy drop-in-fitment.

Significant advantages with do88 performance intercooler (VW Golf GTI OEM intercooler):

• Greater core volume: 15347cm3 (7719 cm3), 99 % bigger!
• Bigger active cooling area , 2692 cm2 vs 2573 cm2, 5 % bigger!
• Air flow at 0,15bar/2,18psi pressure drop: 455 CFM (310 CFM), 47 % higher!
• Lower post intercooler air temperature at same conditions: 24°C (36°C), do88 is 12°C lower!

The 99 % increased core volume is an achievement we are very proud of. It´s a remarkable difference. The engine pulls better throughout the rev range and withstands repeated full throttle runs without building heat. The perception of an intercooler being something to upgrade only after a major engine tune is false, yet widely spread among customers and car people. During hot Swedish summer days, at repeated pulls, inspired driving or even at ordinary driving in a hotter climate area, it doesn't take much of an effort from the engine to generate dangerously high inlet temperatures – even on a standard, non-tuned, car. The cooling capacity with an OEM-intercooler is in many cases inferior which will affect the usable power outtake. The heat has to be eliminated, or else the promised output will be decreased as you start giving gas. With our intercooler you can rest assured the power is there, at all times.

This product comes with everything necessary, without the need for cutting or in any way changing the car´s original shape. Bolts, washers and mounting instructions are of course included.
