Airtec Motorsport intercooler upgrade for the Ford Fiesta ST Mk8, developed as the perfect upgrade for both standard and software-modified vehicles.
This intercooler uses a racing-quality bar-and-plate core, which has been proven to perform better than traditional tube-and-fin designs. Thanks to the larger core, the available space behind the front bumper is optimally utilized.
The Airtec intercooler offers a 40% larger capacity compared to the original intercooler, causing charge temperatures to remain much more stable during repeated load runs.
During back-to-back tests, temperatures with the Airtec intercooler rose only between the 3 and 5 °C, while the original intercooler increases of more than 15 °C showed. On a Stage 1 setup, typical power gains are 8 to 12 hp realized.
The intercooler features flowed cast end tanks with fewer welds for extra strength and improved airflow. Installation is fully bolt-on and requires no drilling or cutting.
Finished in Pro-Series Black for a sleek OEM+ look.
