Happy Tuesday! Bumping this thread up with the latest update in our MQB platform intercooler development! As always, make sure to head over to the Engineering Blog for the full scoop!
We had the fresh-faced MK7.5 Golf R here at Mishi HQ last month for a bout of testing with our intercooler production samples, but before we dive into the test results, let's take a look at the fruit of our prototyping labors
Typically, these new intercooler production samples show up like a wrecking ball. No, not like a scantily clad Miley Cyrus, but rather with size-doubling volume increases figuratively smashing the stock unit to smithereens. This time around, though, given our extremely tight build envelope, our new design might look mostly the same to some. We can assure you that much like the subtle outward appearance of the MK7 GTI and Golf R, looks can be deceiving.
Make sure you head to the Engineering Blog to see the specifics of the innovation we packed into this intercooler! Also keep your eyes peeled for the results of our dyno test coming soon!
As always, feel free to shoot me any comments, questions of concerns
Sorry for the delay getting this update out to you, but here we go!
It's been a long time coming, but over the last few months we've run our new intercooler design in the MK7.5 on our dyno, and now it's time to share the results with you. As always, make sure that you head over to the Engineering Blog to get the full scoop!
Even given the less than ideal mounting location, we were still able to vastly improve over the stock intercooling system. With a 23°F temperature drop over the factory components, we were able to see a significant increase in our test vehicle's performance. Make sure that you head over to the Blog to get a glimpse at the bolt on performance gains!
Also, the MK7 intercooler kit is now available on presale, make sure to get in on the special pricing while it lasts!
