Description
Unlock the full potential of your Audi RS3 or TTRS 2.5TFSI DAZA engine with the IE Performance FDS Intercooler System. Engineered with a massive bar-and-plate core and precision-machined cast aluminum end tanks, this intercooler incorporates IE’s exclusive Flow Distribution System (FDS™) technology—a true motorsport-grade design that ensures unparalleled cooling efficiency. Whether you’re running a Stage 1 tune or pushing extreme hybrid turbo builds, the IE FDS Intercooler delivers consistently lower intake air temperatures, combats heat soak, and maximizes your engine’s power output.
Advanced Cooling Technology
The Flow Distribution System uses strategically engineered fins inside the end tanks to direct airflow evenly through the entire core, optimizing heat transfer and dramatically accelerating recovery from heat soak. This efficient airflow distribution means the IE FDS Intercooler achieves a remarkable 28.6% reduction in intake air temperatures compared to stock, resulting in improved combustion efficiency and power gains.
Superior Performance Gains
-
+24 wheel horsepower (WHP) and +24 wheel torque (WTQ) on Stage 1 tunes
-
65% larger core volume than OEM (834 cubic inches)
-
9% lower pressure drop, enhancing boost response and throttle sensitivity
Robust, Precision-Built Construction
Crafted in the USA with in-house CNC-machined cast aluminum end tanks, each intercooler features ultra-thick, reinforced mounting points for long-lasting durability. Hand TIG welded by expert technicians and pressure-tested to guarantee leak-free performance, this intercooler provides a rock-solid foundation for any power upgrade.
Boost Leak Prevention & Perfect Fitment
Designed specifically for the 2.5TFSI engine, the inlet and outlet ports feature flat-stop edges and beveled grooves to securely lock boost hoses in place, preventing costly boost leaks even under high pressure. The bolt-in design fits perfectly as a direct OEM replacement, compatible with vehicles equipped with or without Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). All necessary installation hardware is included, ensuring a hassle-free upgrade.
Defeat Heat Soak, Maximize Power
Heat soak—power loss caused by excessive heat buildup—is dramatically reduced with the IE FDS Intercooler. By vastly increasing the effective cooling surface area and optimizing airflow, this intercooler maintains consistently lower intake temperatures during intense driving conditions, preserving your RS3 or TTRS’s power through extended track sessions or spirited drives.
