do88 VAG 2.0T EA888 Gen4 (300+hp) BigPack Intercooler Kit w/Red Hoses

do88 is well-known for making well-built cooling components for performance vehicles. This BigPack intercooler kit is designed for the VAG 2.0T EA888 Gen4 engine, specifically those making 300 horsepower or more. An intercooler's job is to cool the compressed air coming from the turbo before it enters the engine. Cooler air is denser, meaning it carries more oxygen, which allows for a more powerful combustion and ultimately, more horsepower. When you're pushing your engine hard, the stock intercooler can struggle to keep up, leading to heat soak and reduced performance. This kit aims to solve that problem.

This kit features a significantly larger intercooler core compared to the factory unit, measuring 850 x 200 x 100 mm. This increased surface area and core volume allow it to absorb and dissipate more heat. The intercooler is constructed with cast aluminum end tanks and a bar-and-plate core, a robust design that handles higher boost pressures and temperatures effectively. The kit includes all the necessary aluminum piping, silicone hoses in a striking red color, and mounting hardware for a complete installation. The piping is designed to be a direct fit, replacing the restrictive stock routing with smoother, larger diameter tubes to improve airflow. This setup helps maintain consistent intake air temperatures even under demanding driving conditions, preventing power loss.

This intercooler kit is a substantial upgrade for anyone looking to maximize the performance of their VAG 2.0T EA888 Gen4 engine, especially if you've already modified other components or plan to. It's important to note that this kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation guide for specific details and recommended procedures.
