Collection: VAG air exchangers
The intercooler, also called air/air exchanger, is very effective in increasing the power of your car's engine. It simply allows you to optimize the operation of turbocharged engines by acting on the temperature of the air before it enters the engine block.
In fact, the turbo compresses the air coming from the air filter, which increases the power and torque of the engine but not optimally. In fact, the action of the turbo quickly increases the temperature of the intake air. The hotter the air, the less dense it is, it expands in a way, which reduces the efficiency of the engine.
An exchanger is therefore installed to eliminate the negative effects of the turbo. It will cool the compressed gases and therefore densify the air entering the engine. This results in better combustion and optimization of engine performance.
