By utilizing a special tube and fin design, the intercooler acts as a large heat exchanger that dissipates the heat generated by the compression of the intake charge without creating reductions in boost pressure or response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Efficiency Improvement = Torque Increase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe cooling efficiency of an intercooler is affected by many factors including the frontal surface area of the core, cooling fin design and air flow through and over the core. HKS has increased the size of the core over stock to increase the air flow over the core.\u003cbr\u003eNew type cooling fin now offers improved heat radiation. Core end tanks have been designed to flow the compressed air evenly across the whole intercooler core. All these factors will maximize reduction of intake air temperature which increases air density. Increasing the range of fueling and ignition setting making it possible to deliver more power and torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront mount intercooler kit with S-type core.

Because front mount layout usually has a demerit of slow response.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePipe layout is designed as straight and short as possible. It enabled as quick boost response as stock intercooler.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen a vehicle is stopped, stock top mount intercooler core keeps heat inside from the engine compartment and then, when the car starts, sometimes knocking occurs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront mount intercooler decreases intake air temperature and it enables safe and reliable tuning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemarks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eECU setting is required.
