The Wagner Competition front radiator kit has been specially developed for the Mercedes-AMG GT (C190) with the 4.0L V8 biturbo engine (M178). This engine uses a dedicated cooling water circuit for cooling the charge air; the kit lowers the cooling water temperature in that circuit, thereby ensuring thermal stability and constant maximum performance.
It Competition racing-net increase the radiator volume by 75% (12.2 liters vs. OEM 7.0 liters), primarily due to the increased build depth (from 26 mm to 52 mm). The optimal ratio between the inner and outer cooling surface guarantees maximum heat transfer with sufficient airflow for adjacent components heat-conducting anti-corrosion coating provides long-lasting, reliable cooling. Installation is virtually plug & play thanks to the detailed installation manual.
