APR has designed the best intercooler upgrade for your 2.0T FSI engine as found in the VW GTI, Jetta and EOS. Charge air cooling is essential to maintaining powerful and safe operation of a turbocharged engine and as performance is increased, so must the efficiency of the intercooler. The APR FSI Intercooler is a perfect OEM intercooler replacement with an intercooler core size almost three times the size of the original unit.

Features:

-Cast Aluminum End Tanks
-Bar and Plate Core Design
-Silicone Pressure Hoses
-Direct OEM Fitment - NO Trimming Necessary
-Fits ANY Stock or Aftermarket Bumper Cover
-Adaptor Coupler for Stock Plumbing

Concept:

APR’s Intercooler Kit for the transversely mounted 2.0T FSI was designed with maximum performance and minimal intrusion in mind. APR’s unique ability to design and cast intricate aluminum end tanks allows us to make an intercooler that fits in the same location as stock, but with a much larger core size.

When moving this air to and from the intercooler, you want to do so with the least amount of resistance as possible. With this in mind, plumbing was designed for the intercooler. Silicone tubing was used to create seamless internal geometry for the air to flow through while also allowing smooth transitions between diameters. A unique CNC-machined coupler allows the silicone APR hoses to connect to the rest of the stock inlet plumbing.

Overall APR’s FMIC kit is the absolute best kit you will find on the market today. We work hard to design, engineer, and test products that will last long and perform well for years to come and this product is no exception.

Several tests were done in order to prove the differences between the stock intercooler and the APR one. One test for thermal effectiveness involved placing the car on the dyno with our normal assortment and arrangement of cooling fans. The car was then run through a rigorous testing procedure that involved allowing it to idle to a normal operating temperature, and then running it through five power runs.
