When increasing the power output of your engine it is extremely important to ensure it has the proper cooling to match. It packs a very large intercooler core into the space available, a full 54% larger than the OEM core. This large core delivers cool air to the engine under all circumstances, increasing power and torque and simultaneously reducing heat soak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eÂ \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe One And OnlyÂ FDSâ„¢Â \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e \u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKeep your GTI and Golf R cool with the IE FDS Intercooler. The IE FDS intercooler has proven to distribute charge air uniformly across the inlet end of the core. In contrast to other intercoolers on the market which rely on natural airflow across the core, our FDS technology uses precisely shaped and placed fins cast into the intake plenum to fully take advantage of the large core volume effectively using the entire core. As a result, the IE FDS intercooler has been proven to reduce intake air temperatures more so than other units available, thus offering the largest power gains possible.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eÂ \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: none;\" alt=\"Integrated Engineering Volkswagen MK5 MK6 FDS Intercooler (Golf R \u0026amp;GTI) ML Performance US\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1272\/9301\/files\/test_1.gif?v=1591665085\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eÂ \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen you begin modifying your VW\/Audi 2.0T it will quickly become necessary to upgrade the intercooler. Once upgrades such as ECU tuning, exhaust systems, and turbo upgrades are introduced, intake air temperatures begin to rise, resulting in massive power loss. The IE front-mount intercooler system was designed to directly replace the factory unit while utilizing a much larger core and our proven FDS (Flow Distribution System) to effectively utilize that larger core. These features allow for much higher cooling efficiency than the factory system, thus reducing intake air temperatures and safely increasing horsepower output. The IE FDS intercooler is also a direct fit, requiring no cutting, modification, or time-wasting hassle during installation.

Heat soak occurs when the heat generated exceeds the cooling capacity of the intercooler. The most common symptom is the noticeable loss of power after long term acceleration or several back to back power pulls. By greatly increasing the core size and useable area of the core with FDS technology, we have eliminated the heat soak, keeping the intake air temperatures consistently lower than OEM and competition intercoolers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eÂ \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision Engineered\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n \u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n \u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\n \u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eUnlike other intercoolers that are simply put together to fit on the car and offer a larger core, the IE FDS intercooler line receives special treatment from start to finish.

Simply put, pressure drop is the amount of pressure that is lost as air travels through the intercooler. As boost pressure is raised, pressure drop typically begins to climb. By using a larger core that flows much more freely than the factory core, pressure drop is reduced, reducing the need for the turbocharger to work harder to produce the required boost levels.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eÂ \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh Quality Construction, Quality Fitment\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"content-type\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe IE FDS intercooler offers perfect OEM replacement and requires no modifications to install.
