This in-turn when compared to the weight of the standard OEM intercooler and crash bar, is only 1kg heavier, meaning the additional weight has no detriment to performance and is far outweighed by the power gains achieved when it is installed. After our skilled fabricators have carefully crafted this piece of automotive artwork, we then finish both the crash bar and intercooler in our standard black finish powder coat for maximum longevity and that OEM+ look.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe RS3 8Y core is a huge 640x250x130 with a\u003cstrong\u003e bar and plate design\u003c\/strong\u003e. This gives it an \u003cstrong\u003eimpressive 55% increase in surface area\u003c\/strong\u003e over the stock OEM item, and an even more awe-inspiring \u003cstrong\u003e153% more volume\u003c\/strong\u003e. The end tanks are made with integrated pipes to retain the stock boost hoses, though you can also replace the standard hoses with our FMKT033 boost hose set if you so wish. This can help prevent hose expansion and failure when running increased boost pressures, just like on the 8V chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBefore getting to work on the Dyno, we spec’d three different types of cores, one of these being bar and plate, and two being a tube and fin construction, with all three cores having different internal and external fin pitches and configurations. This is to ensure we deliver the best possible products for our customers, which is proven time and time again by one of the world leaders in the performance industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forgemotorsport.co.uk\/userfiles\/images\/sys\/products\/Intercooler_for_Audi_RS3_8Y_79353jpeg.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forgemotorsport.co.uk\/userfiles\/images\/sys\/products\/Intercooler_for_Audi_RS3_8Y_19288jpeg.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forgemotorsport.co.uk\/userfiles\/images\/sys\/products\/Intercooler_for_Audi_RS3_8Y_35141jpeg.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forgemotorsport.co.uk\/userfiles\/images\/FORGE-WEB-DIVIDER.png\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do we test different cores?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eHere at Forge Motorsport, when developing an intercooler, we will\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting available:\u003c\/strong\u003e Please contact us for a quote.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Forge Motorsport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55939005940052,"sku":"FMINT33","price":1459.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1019\/0425\/3268\/files\/Intercooler_for_Audi_RS3_8Y_61415jpeg.jpg?v=1779723705","url":"https:\/\/fifty9performance.co.uk\/products\/intercooler-for-audi-rs3-8y-fmint33","provider":"Fifty9 Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
