To fit: Audi A1 Sportback Mk2 40 2019 onwards: Engine: 2.0 TFSI EA888

do88 performance intercooler developed by do88 for an easy fitment in your VW Polo GTI AW/ Audi A1 Sportback 40 TFSI EA888!

Significant advantages with the do88 performance intercooler (VW Polo AW GTI OEM intercooler):
– Greater core volume: 8490cm3 (6376cm3), 33% larger!
– Larger active cooling area , 1198cm2 vs 797cm2, 50% bigger!

This intercooler is constructed to deliver the best cooling efficiency, even during tough conditions. Exclusively manufactured in aluminium with continuous welds, it guarantees reliability and endurance when you really need it. The increased core volume improves cooling efficiency and lowers the intake air temperature. Naturally, this being a do88 performance product, we have executed thorough, stringent and continuous tests whilst developing this product to ensure the best performance. No compromise has been made. This intercooler is optimised to the maximum to the given space for an easy drop-in-fitment.

The 33% increased core volume is an achievement we are proud of. It’s a remarkable difference. Perceivable, to say the very least. The engine pulls better all through the revs and withstands repeated full throttle runs without building heat. The perception of an intercooler being something to upgrade only after a major engine tune is incorrect, yet widely spread among customers and car people. During hot Swedish summer days, at repeated pulls, inspired driving or even at ordinary driving in a hotter climate area, it doesn’t take much of an effort from the engine to generate dangerously high inlet temperatures – even on a standard, non-tuned, car. The cooling capacity with an OEM-intercooler is in many cases inferior which will affect the usable power outtake. The heat has to be eliminated, or else the promised output will be decreased as you start giving gas. With our intercooler you can rest assured the power is there, at all times.

This product comes with everything necessary for an easy installation. Bolts, washers and mounting instructions are of course included.
