The Mishimoto 2015+ Volkswagen MK7 Golf TSI/GTI/R Performance Intercooler Kit is designed to significantly enhance your vehicle’s cooling efficiency and overall performance. This kit replaces the stock intercooler, which often struggles to maintain low intake air temperatures during aggressive driving or increased boost levels, due to its limited size and construction. Our all-aluminum, TIG-welded intercooler features a larger core that increases volume by 89 percent and expands external fin surface area by 162 percent, providing superior heat dissipation and reduced thermal stress on your engine. The cast aluminum end tanks incorporate airflow diverters to maximize the use of the full core surface, ensuring optimal cooling across a range of driving conditions. This upgrade is ideal for enthusiasts seeking both improved power and reliability, especially under demanding driving scenarios. Included in the kit are mandrel-bent aluminum pipes and five-layer silicone couplers, replacing the restrictive stock plastic piping. The increased diameter of 2.75 inches boosts airflow by approximately 30 percent, facilitating better charge delivery and enhancing power output. Testing has shown that this setup can deliver up to 14.5 wheel horsepower and 13 foot-pounds of torque on stock tuning, along with a 23°F reduction in intercooler outlet temperature, contributing to more consistent performance and engine safety. The Mishimoto intercooler kit is engineered for a precise fit on your 2015-2021 Golf TSI, GTI, R, and compatible Audi A3/S3 models, offering a straightforward upgrade for serious drivers. Constructed with attention to durability and cooling efficiency, this kit is a reliable solution for increasing horsepower and maintaining lower intake temperatures during spirited driving or track use. Please note that this product is not CARB approved and requires acknowledgment of Prop 65 compliance before purchase. Designed for skilled installation, it comes in two boxes and is ready to upgrade your vehicle’s intercooling system for improved performance and reliability.
