Maximum performance for the Renault Megane 3 RS – this Airtec Stage 2 front-mount Intercooler has been developed for the Renault Megane III RS 250, 265 and 275 Trophy and represents a significant upgrade over both the OEM Intercooler and Stage 1 solutions. This intercooler is designed for drivers who want to get the most out of their RS, both on the road and on the track.
the intercooler features a full-height 60 mm bar-and-plate core, combined with high-flow cast end tanks and an air-ram scoop that forces airflow directly through the entire core. This results in significantly lower charge temperatures and much more consistent power delivery under heavy load. In independent tests, this Stage 2 Intercooler delivered a gain of 36 bhp and 38.4 lb-ft of torque compared to the standard Renault Intercooler.
Despite its large size, the intercooler fits without any drilling or cutting and remains compatible with the original pipework. The complete fitting kit is supplied with all necessary fixing materials and clear fitting instructions. Installation takes an average of 3 to 4 hours.
