Greddy Intercooler kit Volkswagen Golf IV 1.8T 1998-01 Spec-R T-28

The addition of a Greddy intercooler is one of the best ways to safely increase horsepower in a turbocharged engine. by reducing the engine's inlet temperatures, a denser air charge will enter the engine; this can make more horsepower at the same boost level and even more power at higher boost levels. Even if there is a factory-installed Intercooler, generally these stock units are not ideal even for factory boost levels. They are usually mounted in awkward locations and become very susceptible to heat saturation. They are not ideal for increased boost levels. Greddy's vehicle specific kits include all the necessary mounts, aluminum pipping, houses, and clamps required to install the kit. All kits are designed with specific cores to provide and ideal concession of cooling and flow, with the added benefit of aggressive looks and style. This is achieved by finding and ideal position and configuration for a wide range of boost level. Greddy's engineers properly size the number of rows in the core and tune the internal core with either a free flowing V-spec. core, Greddy's new M-spec. bar-and-plate core, or Greddy's R-Spec core with a different inner fin patterns. The V-spec and R-spec core are lightweight air-to-air, tube and fin design with a highly efficient tube design, which allows smooth ambient flow for optimum heat dissipation and flow to engine cooling systems. Although only offered in very limited sizes, The M-spec cores is an economical compromise that has performance, which lies between the free flowing V-spec. and the extreme cooling potential of the R-spec. cores. Greddy intercoolers kits offer a great balance of heat exchanging efficiency and flow. The ends of the cores are TIG-welded and capped off with smooth flowing heavy duty cast aluminum GReddy end tanks. Lightweight mandrel vent aluminum piping and/or cast aluminum elbows. complete with hose couplers, are used to route air change smoothly to and from intercooler.
