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 -
Intercooler installed in the best location for this platform
Utilizes factory air dams for exceptional airflow across the core.
100% compatible with the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system. -
Highly effective core design
Bar-and-plate core with staggered and louvered fins.
Rigorous testing determined core style, fin density, and size.
Low pressure drop + highly effective cooling = high performance! -
Smooth cast end tanks
Engineered for low turbulence/restriction and maximum flow.
Organically shaped to promote airflow across entire core.
Pressure tested to prevent power robbing boost leaks. -
No hidden labor costs or permanent modifications
No trimming, cutting, or other costly modification required.
No modification to the Adaptive Cruise Control System required.
Full directions and APR world-renowned customer support included. -
Designed by engineers with lasers
With the best equipment and smartest engineers, it just works!
