It's a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory intercooler, built around a high-density bar-and-plate core sized 117% larger than the stock unit to keep intake temperatures down as boost and airflow increase on a tuned car.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe factory tube-and-fin core is sized for stock boost levels. Once a car is tuned, it heat-soaks under sustained load, costing power and raising the risk of pre-detonation. VRSF's bar-and-plate core and cast aluminum end tanks are built to handle that extra airflow without the heat soak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-density, staggered-and-offset bar-and-plate core\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC-machined, one-piece cast aluminum end tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright silver protective coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetains the factory fan shroud mounting tabs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUses the factory intercooler piping - no cutting required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVRSF Race Intercooler core and end tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOwnership Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery core is hand-finished and pressure-tested before it ships.
