Intercooler Kit
1.8T Front Mount Intercooler
APR is please to present our front
mounted intercooler for the TT. The
construction and advanced design techniques used in the
APR intercooler sets ours apart from all
the others on the market. Utilizing such technologies as a
top-bottom feed core, custom mandrel bent plumbing, and innovative
cast endtanks with internal vaning, our intercooler has produced
excellent results in testing. The 180TT features a ?C?-style
intercooler, and the 225TT has a ?Z?-style intercooler.
The conditions of one test that was performed is as follows: at
20 psi of pressure with a vehicle speed of 70 mph, and an elevation
of approximately 500 feet above sea level. Under these conditions
the internal flow was measured at 720cfm. Also at those conditions,
with an input temp of 240? F, the intercooler was quite effective;
cooling the output air to 126? F. While doing this, the intercooler
measured a pressure drop of only .58 psi.
Equally as impressive with the APR
intercooler was the external pressure drop (the amount of air
pressure behind the intercooler) of only 1.01 psi. This helps to
allow airflow to other critical parts of the car such as the
radiator and A/C condenser. While the internal pressure drop is
important, the external pressure drop is often overlooked. Most
other intercoolers commonly cause 1.5 to 2.0 pounds of pressure
drop, hindering the radiator from effectively doing its job of
cooling the engine.
The highlights of the APR Intercooler
kits include the following:
- APR Cast End Tanks with Internal
Vaning
- Top-Bottom Feed Bar and Plate Aluminum Core
- Mandrel-Bent, Powdercoated Stainless Steel Plumbing
- APR Custom Silicone Intake Hoses
