The specially developed Competition high-performance grid maximizes cooling properties, even under the harshest conditions. The flow-optimized free-form terminal cabinets of cast aluminum with integrated air guides ensure even filling and minimize back pressure. The original snap connections have been removed and the connection diameters at the inlet and outlet have been increased to a generous Ø65 mmThe intercooler weighs only 8.9 kg and features an anti-corrosion coating with heat-conducting properties. The kit is a 1:1 replacement that mounts to the original mounting points (plug & play).
