We started out by widening the turbocharger outlet to increase air flow with a 2.50\" wide and straight-through component that eliminates the factory turbo muffler. Next we moved onto the aluminum intercooler inlet and outlet charge pipes, matched to the 2.50\" size of the turbo muffler delete, that removes the factory noise reduction pipe. By deleting the noise reduction pipe and routing larger piping around factory components, our engineers were able to obtain optimal air flow and efficiency. For protection and to provide a clean look, the aluminum charge pipes were finished in a wrinkle black powder coat. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eECS Tuning's Luft-Technik Intercooler features a 21\"x9\"x3\" aluminum bar and plate core with 2.50\" inlet and outlet cast aluminum end tanks, finished in a silver powder coat with the embossed ECS Tuning logo. Each intercooler is pressure tested to withstand a minimum of 3.5 bar and designed to increase power, improve efficiency, and reduce heat soak. Our engineers provided a proper fit by utilizing factory mounting locations and ensuring that no trimming or cutting would be necessary, making installation completely reversible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncreasing the surface area by using a larger more efficient core design and providing a smoother air path, we were able to gain an additional 13HP and 10ft-lbs of torque over the APR Stage 1 software, to the wheels! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced intake temperatures and air turbulence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncreased air flow capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGains of up to 13 WHP and 10 Ft-Lbs WTQ over APR Stage 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 40% improved intercooler efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced intake temps by as much as 65*F during solid state WOT loading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressure drop reduced by 52%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast aluminum intercooler end tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBar and plate design intercooler core\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.50\" diameter intake tract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-ply silicone straight\/hump couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum tubing powder coated in a tough wrinkle black finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM like bracket secures the throttle pipe in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC machined MAP flange welded to factory position \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates the factory noise pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes all stainless steel t-bolt clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy and direct replacement upgraded system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis system is capable of withstanding greater heat and higher boost pressure over factory. Improved intake piping components reduce restrictions and provide a much smoother path for air to flow.
