Intercoolers
Rather than processing water, many intercoolers process air and act as a radiator to remove heat. As cold air passes through your intercooler and into the turbocharger, more oxygen is carried which allows the engine to burn more fuel - resulting in more power. An efficient intercooler system can result in 5%-10% more power, and resists heat soak for longer. All cars with turbocharged engines will benefit from a quality intercooler, which allows the engine to combust more air and fuel per cycle. While your intercooler offers more power, it will also play a huge role in reducing wear, prolonging life and ensuring a smooth running turbocharged engine. Before fitting an intercooler, you should be aware that like all essential car components, they do wear out with time, with leaks being a common sign that your intercooler needs replacing or repairing.
