Product: Uprated intercooler Forge - Fiesta ST180

Details
This uprated intercooler kit for the Mk7 Fiesta ST 180 is a direct replacement for the Original intercooler with no cutting of any body or trim and the installation utilises the original boost pipework and air ducting.
Because is used all the available space, the original 50mm thick core is replaced with a 70mm .

The main reason for uprating an intercooler is to reduce the charged intake temperature as this is directly related to engine power. This is because the amount of power is relative to the density of the air, and density depends on the temperature, pressure and volume.
For a given turbo charged engine where the characteristic or specification remain unchanged other than varying the inlet temperature, there is a proven formula to calculate the relationship between the power produced and inlet temperature.

In reality power loss through temperature may be greater and many engine management systems will reduce power due to temperature increases, in order to protect engine components .
