Boost Your Performance: Upgrading to an AIRTEC Intercooler for MK4 Golf 1.8T
The Real Deal: Upgrading to an AIRTEC Intercooler for MK4 Golf 1.8T
If there's one thing every car enthusiast knows, it's that the key to maximising performance is better cooling. Well, buckle up, because AIRTEC gives us an upgrade for MK4 Golf 1.8T that will put a spin on your engine boost: The Airtec TwinSpec Standard Intercooler.
AIRTEC is known for its rigorous testing to ensure maximum gains from each of their designs. And in the world of intercoolers and radiators, AIRTEC delivers a product worth bragging about. The upgrade kit was tested on a Phase 1 Devil 245 for a seamless fit and performance elevation.
With the standard intercooler and a Stage 1 remap, we've seen an impressive 246.9bhp. Yet, temperatures at a high of 49-degrees means that with higher tune stages, there’s a risk of potential power loss. Fear no more! This upgrade guarantees your Golf runs both cooler and smoother.
Once the AIRTEC TwinSpec Standard Intercooler is fitted along with the Stage 1 remap, power ratchets up to a stunning 261bhp! Intake temperatures plummet to a low of 17 degrees, peaking at 21 degrees. Quick to install (complete in under two hours), this efficient and cost-effective upgrade is an easily attainable boost for your Golf.
Primarily designed for VW Golf MK5 and MK6 (GTi 2.0 TFSI / GTi Edition 30 2.0 TFSI), the kit includes:
1 x 70mm core Intercooler with shaped end tanks
2 x Twinspec 5ply silicone hoses with stainless Jubilee clips
3 x Billet alloy machined push fittings
2 x AIRTEC logo Horn relocation brackets
Fitting instructions and all required fixings
In relation to value for money, this upgrade is unbeatable. It's proven to increase power for fast Road & Track, and can be used in conjunction with the AIRTEC OEM Intercooler upgrade for even greater cooling power! TwinSpec Intercooler is available in natural silver or Pro-Series Satin Black and comes with AIRTEC's 3 years unlimited mileage warranty.
Dimensions are pitched at a width of 740mm (excluding pipes), a height of 170mm, and a thickness of 70mm, ensuring a seamless fit for your Golf models.
In conclusion, the AIRTEC Intercooler upgrade for MK4 Golf 1.8T is not just an upgrade; it's an investment in better performance, longevity, and enhanced driving pleasure. Get ready to roll out in style with a cooler and superiorly performing engine.
