CTS TURBO 8V/8Y RS3 2.5T EVO RACE INTERCOOLER

$4,257.99
This product is ready to order. Orders will have an estimated 2-week lead time.

CTS Turbo is proud to announce our RACE fit FMIC for the 8V/8Y RS3 2.5T EVO with updated BLACK finish.

The OEM intercooler delivers underwhelming performance, this platform benefits greatly from an intercooler upgrade. Vehicles at stock boost levels, and especially on tuned cars will all see a large improvement over the factory equipped hardware.

This race intercooler meets our extensive quality control and pressure testing (up to 50psi). Cast aluminum end tanks attach to factory hoses seamlessly to ensure a boost-leak free fit that results in increased horsepower and torque. If you are looking to get the maximum performance in very high power and boost applications this is the intercooler for you.

Stock FMIC size: 6.3 tall x 25.3 wide x 3.2 thick = 510.05 in3

CTS RACE: 13.875 tall x 26 wide x 4 thick = 1,443 in3

Features:

    • Efficient bar and plate construction
    • Internal air-directing fins provide smooth flow and minimize pressure drop
    • Low-pressure drop, high air flow
    • Designed using the latest 3D scanning technology
    • Complete replacement for restrictive factory part
