Description
Civic Type R FK8 Wagner Intercooler
Fits models: Honda Civic Type R FK8
Intercoolers are a critical component to any turbocharger installation! The cooler the temperature of the intake air – the denser it is – the more oxygen it carries – the more performance it will give, so it’s very important to have maximum adiabatic efficiency!
However, big is not always better because we must also consider air-flow efficiency. The bigger the intercooler core – the more restriction to airflow it will have – giving a greater pressure drop – leading to lower boost pressure = less performance!
So, it is crucial to have adequate intercooler core volume to dissipate the heat, and with flow-bench/CFD designed flow path to minimise pressure drop.
In addition, all our charge air coolers have an anti-corrosion coating with thermal conductive properties. This guarantees optimal cooling with a significant increase in performance. Completely ready-to-install kit, easy to replace with standard charge air coolers – including silicone hoses and aluminium adapters. Up to 6 bar tested and pressure-stable. All our products are subject to continuous qualitative monitoring.
The WAGNERTUNING high-performance intercooler has got a new competition core (Tube Fin) with the dimensions 670 mm x 183,4 mm x 125 mm (15.4 liters)/ 26,38Inch x 7,22Inch x 4,92Inch (939,76Inch³), which was developed especially for the requirements of the Honda Civic Type R FK8. This high-performance core offers an 23 % larger frontal surface and 140 % more core volume compared to the stock intercooler.
The aluminum cast endtanks were designed in CAD and optimized in CFD simulations (for an ideal internal airflow). An incorporated air baffle inside the intercooler inlet ensure a uniform filling of the intercooler. The result is a excellent cooling property with a minimal back pressure. The newly developed competition high-performance core is very light and provides the adjoining components (for example the watercooler) enough air flow by using a specially prepared air baffle. That`s why this kit is perfect for racing use. An optimal cooling effect of the charged air with a significant increase in performance!
An anti-corrosion powder coating with perfect heat-conducting properties protects the WAGNERTUNING intercooler from all environmental influences, so a lasting and optimal cooling effect can be guaranteed. The installation is done by replacing the original intercooler and is easy to perform (plug and play). All our products are subject to a continuous quality monitoring.
