do88 94-98 Volvo 850 Turbo (63mm Throttle) BigPack Intercooler Kit w/Red Hoses

If you're looking to get the most out of your turbocharged 1994-1998 Volvo 850, especially if you've already upgraded the engine management or are planning to, a larger intercooler is a key component. This BigPack intercooler kit from do88 is designed to replace the factory unit, which can become a bottleneck as you increase boost pressure and airflow. A more efficient intercooler helps cool the compressed air charge before it enters the engine, leading to a denser air charge and more consistent power delivery.

This kit features a substantial core that offers a much larger surface area and volume compared to the stock intercooler. The core itself is well-built with aluminum construction, known for its excellent heat dissipation properties. It's designed to handle higher boost levels without excessive pressure drop, which is crucial for maintaining performance. The kit also includes do88's signature silicone hoses in red, which are reinforced to withstand the heat and pressure found in the engine bay. These hoses are designed to fit the factory connection points for the throttle body and turbocharger, simplifying the installation process. The end tanks are also aluminum, welded to the core for a solid connection.

When installing this kit, you'll be removing the original intercooler and its associated piping. While this kit is designed as a direct replacement for the factory intercooler, some minor adjustments to mounting brackets or surrounding components might be necessary depending on the specific condition of your vehicle. It's a good idea to have a set of basic hand tools and possibly some trim removal tools on hand. This upgrade is particularly beneficial for those pushing their 850's turbo system beyond stock specifications, helping to keep intake air temperatures in check and supporting increased horsepower potential.
