The Airtec Motorsport Intercooler, featuring an integrated crash bar design, has been developed for owners of modified Audi RS3 8V cars who want the highest cooling efficiency and performance, for both track use and sporty road driving. the intercooler was developed at Airtec’s headquarters in the United Kingdom.
The design features enlarged inlet and outlet ports which allow free flow through special end tanks to a 100 mm core. This core utilises the car’s full grille, whilst retaining the tow eye.
This significantly increases the cooling surface area and volume compared to the original, whilst drastically reducing Intake air temperatures. This makes the intercooler ideally suited to heavily modified vehicles with higher boost pressures.
the intercooler fits neatly behind the original bumper without requiring any modifications to the bumper. The crash bar supplied is powder-coated and pre-cut, ready for fitting. The comprehensive kit also comprises Airtec’s CAD-designed end tanks, laser-cut brackets and all fixing materials for a direct bolt-on installation. The finish is Pro-Series Black and the intercooler comes with a 3-year warranty with no mileage limit. Allow 2 to 3 hours for installation, depending on your technical skill.
Please note: this product is not currently compatible with models featuring Active Cruise Control (ACC); this is currently under development.
