Product Description
The factory intercooler on the MQB-platform cars has proved to be unable to cope with the demands of higher power, hard driven cars, showing up as serious power losses during hard driving as air temperature soar.
RacingLine's massive 'plate & bar' Intercooler System is the best performing intercooler upgrade on offer for the MQB-platform Golf/GTI/R MK7 & S3.
By consistently reducing intake air temperatures (IAT), heat soak is minimized delivering increased performance again and again. No need for the recovery cool-down time needed for the production intercooler.
RacingLine's development is focused on finding the 'sweet spot' of maximum IAT cooling versus minimum pressure loss. This has allowed them to achieve increased size without increased lag.
This race-proven cooler really is essential for every stage of tuning on any high performance MQB-platform car.
