Features

Advanced core design for performance that far exceeds the capabilities of the factory intercooler
Advanced core design for performance that far exceeds the capabilities of the factory intercooler

The core is a large bar-and-plate design with densely packed, staggered and louvered fins. The design offers exceptional cooling while balancing pressure loss across the core and maintaining critical airflow to the parts behind the intercooler. The result is reliable performance in the toughest situations!

Smooth intercooler end tank design for low turbulence/restriction and maximum flow
Smooth intercooler end tank design for low turbulence/restriction and maximum flow

To fully utilize the massive core, APR’s mechanical engineers designed cast aluminum end tanks organically shaped for proper airflow distribution across the entire core. By correctly sizing the intercooler core, the end tank design was not sacrificed.

End tanks are CNC machined to ensure perfect mounting and connecting surfaces
End tanks are CNC machined to ensure perfect mounting and connecting surfaces

One-piece end tanks are CNC machined to provide a slip-resistant mounting surface for hoses and perfectly flat connecting surfaces used for TIG welding the tanks to the core. Through proper alignment in welding jigs, each unit is assembled to tight tolerances for a precise and accurate fit.

Product Details

Front Mount Bar-and-Plate Design Intercooler System (IC100024) by APR®. unfortunately, to the untrained eye, many intercooler designs appear the same. however, effectiveness of the system and overall performance are greatly determined by several key metrics. alloy selection, end tank design, construction type, fin style, fin density and overall core dimensions must be analyzed and balanced accordingly to deliver class-leading performance. while the oem’s goal is to create a lightweight, easy to manufacture and inexpensive to produce, cross-platform design capable of supporting factory power levels, apr’s intercooler must be capable of supporting more than double the factory output. achieving this goal took a multi-step approach focused around intercooler core selection, end tank design and install location. The APR Intercooler System dramatically lowers charge air temperature and resists heat soak far better the factory intercooler system. Through a massively increased core volume, superior intercooler core design and smooth, cast end tanks, APR’s engineers were able to create an intercooler capable of supporting power levels well beyond that of the factory unit. Expect increased horsepower and torque and dramatically prolonged performance.

Dramatically lowers intake air temp (IAT): Increases HP while minimizing power-robbing heat soak! Dynoed 26 AWHP over to the factory system (STG 1 93)! Effective cooling for more than double factory horsepower levels!

Highly effective core design: Bar-and-plate core with staggered and louvered fins. Rigorous testing determined core style, fin density, and size. Low pressure drop + highly effective cooling = high performance!

Smooth cast end tanks: Engineered for low turbulence/restriction and maximum flow. Organically shaped to promote airflow across entire core. Pressure tested to prevent power robbing boost leaks.

Easy to install: Simple bolt-on install with no trimming or drilling necessary!

Designed by engineers with lasers: With the best equipment and smartest engineers, it just works!

Excellent Cooling
Great intercooler upgrade to lower intake temps and get more power safely. Quality and durable construction. The bar and plate core design provides better cooling efficiency than the stock one. Works great. Can handle more airflow.
