Revo 3.0 TFSI Intercooler Kit
The Revo Intercooler utilises unique design features to lower intake air temperatures, minimise pressure drop and allow the engine to produce impressive power and torque with Revo Software. The unique end tank profile promotes internal laminar flow by decreasing turbulence and increasing airspeed into the bar and plate core. This enhances charge air cooling giving you access to more power throughout the rev range.
The limitations of the stock intercooler were apparent throughout testing. The stock part consistently struggled to manage charge air temperatures, even under normal driving conditions. The Revo Intercooler has been designed to improve on the stock part in every area. Restrictive elements of the stock cooler have been enhanced and cooling efficiency has greatly improved by utilising four different fin types throughout the core, increasing core volume by 90% and overall surface area by an impressive 140%.
Key Features
- Unique core design with four fin types
- Fully Cast End Tanks
- OEM Direct Fitment
- 140% Increase in Surface area
- 90% Increased Core Volume
Increased Core Volume
The Revo Intercooler was built around a simple principle; create a cooler that can keep up with your demand for power. Designed from the ground up, the Revo Intercooler has a much larger core volume than the OEM part and offers perfect fitment, improving cooling by utilising the full volume of the available space as well as cold ambient air from the front of the vehicle.
Bar and Plate Core
Designed with a bar and plate core to maximise the efficiency of heat transfer, the pressure drop is also controlled as the air meets less resistance compared to that of a tube and fin alternative. The Revo Intercooler also features carefully specified fin geometry to maximise cooling properties while minimising flow restriction.
Fin Design
The new bar and plate core design now utilise a four-fin configuration designed to control charge and ambient air separately. This unique fin design significantly increases cooling capacity by up to 25% over a two-fin configuration. The ambient core side utilises louvred fins to slow ambient airflow to improve heat transfer, while the charge core side features an offset internal fin design to balance surface area and air resistance, minimising pressure drop.
End Tank Design
The Revo end tank geometry maintains the largest possible cross-sectional flow area to and from the core. Coupled with a cast interior surface finish, the Revo end tanks allow air to flow freely without restriction. End tanks play an important part in maintaining pressure and work in harmony with the core to promote airflow, the Revo end tanks are designed to offer the optimal balance of both key features.
Brackets
To ensure precision fitment, only Revo offers precision laser cut upper and lower brackets to fit integrated mounting points cast into the intercooler. As the cooler has a much larger surface area, upper brackets were essential to prevent any rotating movement.
