Following on from Forge Motorsport's very successful intercooler and performance products for theRS3 8Vchassis, the Forge intercooler for the RS3 8Y chassis builds on Forge Motorsport's reputation for delivering cooling solutions, that offer real-worldincreases in power and impressive temperature drops.Whilst the 8Y chassis shares many components with the older 8V, the space available behind the bumper is a different shape, and the crash bar has also changed. This required a whole new intercooler and crash bar setup for this latest chassis.
The crash bar Audi has fitted to the RS3 8Y is made of steel, Forge Motorsport's Forge Motorsport intercooler kit utilizes a genuine Audi alloy crash bar, that Forge Motorsport has cleverly modified in-house, in order to accept the enormous race intercooler. This in-turn when compared to the weight of the standard OEM intercooler and crash bar, is only 1kg heavier, meaning the additional weight has no detriment to performance and is far outweighed by the power gains achieved when it is installed. After Forge Motorsport's skilled fabricators have carefully crafted this piece of automotive artwork, Forge Motorsport then finish both the crash bar and intercooler in Forge Motorsport's standard black finish powder coat for maximum longevity and that OEM+ look.
The RS3 8Y core is a huge 640x250x130 with abar and plate design. This gives it animpressive 55% increase in surface areaover the stock OEM item, and an even more awe-inspiring153% more volume. The end tanks are made with integrated pipes to retain the stock boost hoses, though you can also replace the standard hoses with Forge Motorsport'sFMKT033boost hose set if you so wish. This can help prevent hose expansion and failure when running increased boost pressures, just like on the 8V chassis.
Before getting to work on the Dyno, Forge Motorsport spec’d three different types of cores, one of these being bar and plate, and two being a tube and fin construction, with all three cores having different internal and external fin pitches and configurations. This is to ensure Forge Motorsport deliver the best possible products for Forge Motorsport's customers, which is proven time and time again by one of the world leaders in the performance industry.
