Vibrant Intercooler Core - 6in x 11.80in x 3.00in

This Vibrant Performance intercooler core uses a bar and plate construction, a common and effective design for air-to-air cooling. The ambient air path features a louvered fin design, which is a smart way to increase the core's surface area without adding too much drag. This means it can grab more of the outside air to cool the charge air passing through.

On the charge air side, an offset fin design helps keep pressure loss to a minimum. This is crucial because you want the compressed air from your turbo or supercharger to reach the engine with as much velocity and as little restriction as possible. The combination of these fin designs aims for maximum cooling efficiency while still allowing for good airflow. This core is pressure tested to ensure it's leak-free, which is important for maintaining boost pressure.

This intercooler core is made from 6061 aluminum and is capable of handling demanding race applications. It's a solid option if you're building a custom forced induction setup and need a reliable core to manage intake air temperatures.
