A limited number now available of Do88's newly developed Volvo 240 Group A replica intercooler!

During the 80's Volvo raced in the touring car series (group A) with the Volvo 240 Turbo. To participate in group-A class ETC (European Touring Car Championship) it required that the car manufacturer make a minimum 500 cars. Those must be available to buy for the public and legal to drive on public roads. So in 1983 Volvo produced 500 cars named Volvo 242 Turbo Evolution. These cars were equipped with a German-designed intercooler from Längerer & Reich, having beautifully designed intercooler tanks with very good air flow.

Using the latest 3D technology DO88 have created as closely identical intercooler tanks as possible. This has been possible because we DO88 have been lucky enough to borrow an original genuine Volvo 240 group-A intercooler. The original group-A intercooler was fitted with a 44mm thick Tube & Fin core. We have chosen to provide our replica intercooler with a 52mm thick Bar & Plate core with even better cooling efficiency. We have chosen to make the core thicker than the original as the thickness of the tanks is 52mm.

Core size:

1. 600x451x52mm bar and plate
2. Outlet and inlet connection size : 71mm

The do88 intercooler is delivered as in the product pictures unpainted. The original intercooler in the comparison images has been painted black by the owner. New pressure pipes would need to be built to fit this intercooler into a standard 240 Turbo.
