AIRTEC Front Mount Intercooler Kit - Volkswagen Golf GTI/R MK8
Developed at AIRTEC HQ in the UK, AIRTEC are proud to launch their uprated front mount intercooler kit aimed at EA888 Gen 4 platform owners who want the very highest level of cooling efficiency, power and performance for track or fast road use.
Leading on from the huge success of their EA888 Gen 3 platform intercooler kit that has proven itself the go-to option on numerous big power builds for the last 7 years, when it came to developing the AIRTEC kit for the EA888 Gen 4 platform, AIRTEC knew exactly which way to go. With very similar size restrictions to its predecessor, AIRTEC utilised their huge 16.4-litre capacity core from the EA888 Gen 3 platform and integrated it to better accommodate the air-con radiator.
This allowed an impressive 80% increase in overall capacity in comparison to the original intercooler, as well as an increase in frontal area to make the most of the air flow provided. Together with their cast end tanks to ensure optimum air flow both in and out of the intercooler, the moulded one-piece designs ensure flow is directed correctly and efficiently.
Available in a high-quality powder coated black finish, the comprehensive kit is a direct replacement and comes with new Pro Hoses silicone boost pipes. It also comes complete with all fixtures and fittings, as well as detailed fitting instructions.
Its proven cooling efficiency increase makes it an essential modification for all modified EA888 Gen 4 platform models.
Intercooler is available with or without an "AIRTEC" logo.
