Airtec Motorsport intercooler upgrade for the Hyundai Kona N, developed for those who maximum performance from his Kona N and wants to prevent power loss due to rising intake temperatures. The stock intercooler is relatively wide but shallow, which means the available space behind the bumper isn't optimally utilized.
Airtec has therefore developed a larger and more efficient intercooler developed that directly replaces the OEM intercooler. The new core is deeper, higher and wider performed, which makes better use of the available volume above and below the original position. The result is an intercooler that 33 percent deeper is then original.
This design creates a 58 percent greater total capacity compared to the original intercooler, combined with a increase in frontal areaThis allows the airflow to be used more effectively and the charge temperatures lower and more stable, even under prolonged load.
The inlet and outlet diameters have been increased from 50 mm to 63 mm and 65 mm, which amounts to a increase of up to 30 percentThis significantly reduces restriction in the intake tract. The kit comes with Pro Hoses silicone piping, which connects directly to the original boost pipes.
In combination with high-flow one-piece molded cast end tanks This Airtec intercooler offers significantly higher cooling capacity and efficiency than standard. The kit comes complete with all mounting hardware and clear installation instructions.
NB: for mounting is a small amount of trimming required. Please consult the included mounting instructions.
