Wagner Tuning Audi SQ5 3.0L TDI Competition Intercooler Kit

Wagner Tuning is well-known for making solid cooling components for performance vehicles. This Competition Intercooler Kit is built specifically for the Audi SQ5 3.0L TDI, aiming to improve how your engine breathes under boost. A stock intercooler can sometimes struggle to keep intake air temperatures down, especially when you're pushing the engine hard or have made other performance upgrades. Cooler intake air means denser air, and denser air allows your engine to make more power more reliably.

This kit uses a large, high-performance bar-and-plate intercooler core. This design offers a significant increase in surface area and volume compared to the factory unit, allowing it to absorb and dissipate heat much more effectively. The end tanks are made from cast aluminum, shaped to fit the SQ5's engine bay and connect smoothly to the factory or compatible aftermarket charge pipes. Everything needed for installation is included, designed to be a direct replacement for the stock intercooler, meaning no cutting or major modifications are typically required. This setup helps reduce charge air temperatures, which can lead to improved throttle response and sustained power output, especially during spirited driving or track use.

Because this intercooler is not CARB approved, it cannot be shipped to California. Be sure to check your local emissions regulations before purchasing. This kit is designed to work with the factory charge pipes, but if you have an aftermarket setup, it's always a good idea to confirm compatibility with your specific piping configuration.
