Description

Product Description

With our extensive development, and the continuing review of our intercooler for the TTRS, we were very eager to use our wealth of knowledge to extract the best possible results with the RS3. Immediately we were able in increase the size of the core, allowing much more surface area and cooling efficiency than the stock core. Our intercooler now uses up all the space the Audi had failed to take advantage of.

The core measures a massive 530x130x225mm, and is of bar and plate design. The end tanks are designed such that the standard boost hoses can be retained. To ensure that this monster is adequately supported we supply a genuine Audi crash bar, which we modify in house, which also eases the installation process. Total fitting time is only around 3 hours if you take your time, and can be fitted on a driveway if necessary.

Rather than release this product immediately after development, we have taken our time with continued testing and tweaking, to ensure that we really have acheived the best possible. We have seen excellent results on both standard cars and those which have been remapped. In fact, on the standard car we had to repeat this several times because we just could not believe what we were achieving, and this presented us with a dilemma... we dont normally quote power figures as they can vary from car to car, dyno to dyno, and they are so variable with weather conditions, fuel used and even how much pressure you have in your tyres! However the gains were so good - on a standard car, with standard software, we saw peak gains of 40bhp in back to back testing. Does this mean that all cars fitted with this will get 40bhp ? Its impossible to say. We're merely including our results here as an indication of how well the core is working.

Warranty

Warranty Infomation

The majority of Forge Motorsport products come with a limited lifetime warranty (brakes pads excluded). All warranty claims must be accompanied by the original proof of purchase to enable us to help you. Failure to supply this proof will result in your claim or enquiry being denied.

For further information, please call our customer service team on +44(0)1452 380999 or email info@forgemotorsport.co.uk.

Do not use aggressive (acidic) car cleaning products, particularly traffic film remover solutions or shampoos to clean your intercooler, radiator, or oil cooler. The use of these products can damage Forge Motorsport cooling systems and invalidate your warranty. These are often found at car washes. A light, warm, soapy solution (free of harsh acidic cleaning compounds) should be used to clean you cooler and thoroughly rinsed away. We recommend that you should inspect your product on a regular basis for bent and/or crushed fins. Any bent fins should be carefully straightened to allow ambient air to pass through the core face. At the time of installing your Forge radiator, an approved coolant must be used and added to the coolant system. Be sure you never mix coolant and always use distilled water.

This warranty does not apply to any defect in the goods arising from fair wear and tear, wilful damage, accident, negligence by you or any third party, use otherwise than as recommended by the supplier, failure to follow the supplier’s instructions, or any alteration or repair carried out without the supplier’s approval.

Hello, Would this intercooler fit an Audi TT RS MK2 8J? I know they share the same engine code as the RS3 8P. Thank you.

No, the FMINTRS3 is not compatible with the Audi TTRS MK2 8J model. The models in question share the same engine, but there are mounting peg position differences and the associated modified bumper bar is different.

The compatible intercooler for the Audi TTRS MK2 8J is Forge Motorsport part number FMINT2TTRS; and this intercooler kit does include the identical intercooler to that of the one we supply with the RS3 8V intercooler kit with part number FMINT4, the only difference being the bumper bar. The FMINTRS3 kit we offer is however model specific to the RS3 8P models.

Hello, I am interested in your 8P RS3 intercooler. To what power and torque level is it rated? Thanks

hello , this is rated to approximately 700bhp and 650lbt of torque.
