Description
If you're looking to upgrade your vehicle's boost levels, the CTS MK6 2.0T Direct Fit FMIC Kit is the perfect solution. This high-performance intercooler is designed as a drop-in replacement for the OEM front mounted intercooler (FMIC), which means you can install it without any trimming or modification of the bumper. The OEM FMIC is adequate for stock boost levels, but once boost levels are increased through ECU upgrades or chipping, the OEM FMIC struggles to keep the charged air temperatures in check. This can result in boost cut and timing pull, both of which reduce the amount of power your vehicle produces.
With the CTS direct fit FMIC, you can expect a significant improvement in your vehicle's performance. It uses a high efficiency bar and plate intercooler core, which reduces pressure drop and allows your turbo to work less hard to make a given level of boost. For instance, if your turbo makes 30psi of boost pressure in the turbocharger and your intercooler has a 10psi pressure drop, then the boost measured by your ECU would be (30psi - 10psi) = 20psi. With the CTS direct fit FMIC, your turbo doesn't have to work as hard to reach desired boost levels, which is beneficial in two ways. Firstly, the turbo life expectancy is increased due to more efficient operation, and secondly, the boost leaving the turbocharger is cooler and more dense, resulting in more power to the ground.
The CTS MK6 2.0T Direct Fit FMIC Kit comes with 4-ply silicon hoses and a billet adapter to turbo outlet pipe, as well as high-quality stainless steel clamps. With its efficient bar and plate construction, it has a low pressure drop, which means your turbo doesn't have to work as hard to achieve your desired level of boost. Plus, this kit maintains factory mounting points and is rated for power levels in excess of 600HP. The core dimensions are 23.00 Length x 2.00" Tall x 16.5" Height, and the cast aluminium end tanks come with mounting points that are CAST into the end tank, NOT welded like inferior intercoolers. Upgrade your boost and performance with the CTS MK6 2.0T Direct Fit FMIC Kit today.
