Description
For turbocharged engines like the Porsche 996 Turbo, managing Inlet Air Temperatures (IATs) is critical, especially for modified vehicles producing power far beyond factory specifications. The AWE Tuning Performance Intercoolers for the Porsche 996TT are engineered to tackle this challenge, offering the ultimate solution for enthusiasts pushing their cars to the limit.
Capable of handling well over 700 horsepower, these intercoolers are designed to outperform the stock units by a significant margin. The AWE cores are 37% larger than stock intercoolers, featuring 422 cubic inches of core volume compared to the factory's 308 cubic inches. Using high-flow bar and plate cores, AWE’s intercoolers dramatically reduce intake temperatures by 55°F, allowing for more consistent performance and higher reliability under demanding conditions.
Each intercooler is built with cast end tanks designed using advanced CAD and CFD software to optimize airflow distribution. This ensures uniform cooling and reduces pressure drop through the core by 1 psi compared to stock. The result is enhanced performance without compromising durability or efficiency.
These intercoolers fit seamlessly into the Porsche 996TT with minimal modifications, a testament to AWE's engineering expertise. The kit also includes 6-ply silicone hoses reinforced with Nomex braiding, ensuring durability and resistance to bursting under high pressure. The factory-style CNC-machined aluminum connections provide a secure and reliable fitment with the factory Y-pipe, ensuring OE reliability.
