APR 1.8T/2.0T Intercooler System for MQB Platform Vehicles

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.

Quick Facts:

• 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 1.25" – 492.5 in³ – OEM GTI
  24.25" x 16.25" x 1.37" – 529.8 in³ – OEM Golf R
  24.00" x 16.25" x 2.25" – 877.5 in³ – APR
