HF-Series intercooler kit V2 Double DIN VAG 1.8-2.0 T(F)SI / 1.6-2.0 TDI

This upgrade intercooler kit for VAG 1.8 and 2.0 TFSi TDI is a highlight of the HF-Series range.

The high quality BarnPlate core has the best cooling properties to provide optimum performance even in poor conditions and is also very robust. It is characterized by a high resistance and heats itself not so much as comparable networks of other manufacturers. At the same time the whole system is also aligned to the best flow. This means that the pressure loss is minimal and the entire air flow was aerodynamically designed with CAD-flow analyzes. Also included are the cooler boxes, which are made of high-strength aluminum casting.

The advantages of this product is significantly cooler charge air, which improves the combustion of the engine, earlier response and improved flow. Thus, this product is interesting for both factory output, as well as racing. Every single cooler was built on each vehicle, calculated in flow simulations and tested for the in-house dynamometer.

Plug&Play!
Easy installation for you! Just buy the fitting connection for your vehicle and you can install the intercooler immediently!

Technical Details
Length: 600mm (core)
Height: 420mm (core)
Depth: 57mm (core)
Core volume without casting: 14,36cm³
Type: Bar´n´Plate
Incl. parts certificate for problem-free registration according to §19.3 – German document; registration in other countries follows local regulations.

  Please note:
– Attention: If you chose the intercooler with click connections, the OEM pressure hoses are used furthermore!
– 2.0 TDI and 1.4 TSI turbo/compressor cross motors always cooler with selected OEM click connections.
– 2.0 TFSI transverse engines all variants can be used
– Consideration should be given at 2.0 TSI / 2,0TDI models if the original cooler comes standard with click connections. If this is not the case, the HF-Series Cooler with aluminium pressure piping must be ordered for the 2.0 TSI.
– At 2.0 TDI models without click connections you must order Art-Nr.: -2

What will the advantages be, if you are installing an upgrade intercooler?
To name an accurate performance increasement, which results by installing an upgrade intercooler in numbers, many unknown factors, like: further hardware changes, as well as the engine software you are using, have to be determined, because this is different from vehicle to vehicle. As a rule of thumb for ECU remapped engines, you can expect up to 5% – 10%. But what at least also as important is: Regardless whether your ECU is already remapped or if it isn´t, upgrade intercoolers preventing a loss of performance at worse conditions, like high outside temperatures or even to reach the temperature protection of your engine. So you will be always able to count on the full power of it.

Recommendation
Use our HF-Series intercooler to complement your hardware and software setup. By reducing the back-pressure (relieving the turbocharger) and improved cooling of the charged air (increasing the oxygen ratio in the combustion chamber + thermal relief), an increased performance results, which lets you use the potential of any turbo-charged engine efficiently.

If you´re thinking about hardware and software tuning on your vehicle, you shouldn´t ignore the fact „Charge air pressure loss“.

So, if you´re increasing the perfomance of your car by chiptuning, the charge air pressure will increase in 99% oft he cases. The use of the standard charge air cooler increases the load pressure loss exponentially. This means that the turbocharger has to work even more and the thermal load on the turbocharger increases, the running time drops or is weakened by the high speeds of the turbocharger.

With our HF-Series intercoolers, we create the perfect balance between cooling effect and charge air pressure loss.
