APR INTERCOOLER SYSTEM - MQB 2.0T (8SPD) (TIGUAN/ARTEON/Q3)

The APR Intercooler System is a OEM-location upgrade that dramatically reduces intake air temperature (IAT), minimizes heat soak, and provides increased performance! The system is a direct bolt-on upgrade that requires no trimming and is recommended at every stage of performance.   Features:  Dramatically lowers intake air temp (IAT) -- Increases horsepower while minimizing power-robbing heat soak! -- Effectiveness tested to over 500 HP! -- 21 horsepower gain over the factory system! Massive core size -- Use of the OEM-location allows for a massive intercooler core. -- 24.25" x 16.25" x 1.16" - 457.1 in³ - OEM Tiguan -- 24.25" x 16.25" x 1.25" - 492.5 in³ - OEM MK7 GTI -- 24.25" x 16.25" x 1.37" - 529.8 in³ - OEM MK7 Golf R (Similar to Arteon) -- 24.00" x 16.25" x 2.25" - 877.5 in³ - APR Intercooler installed in the best location for this platform - Utilizes factory air dams for exceptional airflow across the core. - 100% compatible with the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system. Highly effective core design -- Bar-and-plate core with staggered and louvered fins. -- Rigorous testing determined core style, fin density, and size. -- Low pressure drop + highly effective cooling = high performance! Smooth cast end tanks -- Engineered for low turbulence/restriction and maximum flow. -- Organically shaped to promote airflow across entire core. -- Pressure tested to prevent power robbing boost leaks. -- No hidden labor costs or permanent modifications No trimming, cutting, or other costly modification required. -- No modification to the Adaptive Cruise Control System required. -- Full directions and APR world-renowned customer support included. Designed by engineers with lasers -- With the best equipment and smartest engineers, it just works!
