do88 06-11 SAAB 9-3 2.8T V6 Aero/Turbo X (B285) BigPack Intercooler Kit w/Blue Hoses

This BigPack intercooler kit from do88 includes a large, high-performance intercooler designed specifically for the 2006-2011 Saab 9-3 2.8T V6 Aero and Turbo X models with the B285 engine. It also comes with a complete set of custom-fit blue silicone hoses and all the necessary mounting hardware for installation. This kit is intended to replace the factory intercooler and associated piping, offering a significant upgrade in cooling efficiency for turbocharged engines.

The do88 intercooler features a much larger core compared to the stock unit, with a core volume that is 130% greater. This increased surface area and depth allow it to dissipate heat more effectively, which is crucial for maintaining consistent intake air temperatures, especially under demanding driving conditions or after engine tuning. Cooler intake air means a denser air charge, allowing the engine to produce more power and respond more crisply. The intercooler core itself is a bar-and-plate design, known for its robust construction and efficient heat transfer capabilities. The included silicone hoses are multi-layered and reinforced to withstand the high pressures and temperatures found in the turbo system, and the blue color adds a custom look under the hood.

Installation of this kit involves removing the factory intercooler and piping and fitting the new, larger do88 unit. While it's designed as a direct replacement, some adjustments may be needed depending on specific vehicle configurations. This kit is a popular choice for Saab owners looking to improve their engine's performance and reliability, especially those who have upgraded their turbocharger or ECU tune. Please note that this intercooler kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
