Forge Motorsport Intercooler for Audi TTRS (8S) 2017 Onwards — Intercooler for Audi TT Mk3 (2015 - Onwards) TTRS 8S (2017 - Onwards). Technical specifications and compatibility are based on Forge Motorsport product data.
Product Details
Following on from Forge Motorsport's very successful intercooler for the RS3 8v chassis, the Forge intercooler for the TTRS (8S) chassis builds on Forge Motorsport's reputation for delivering cores thatoffer real-world increases in power and temperature drops.Whilst the 8V chassis shares many components with the TTRS 8S, 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 TTRS core is a huge 640x250x100 and of bar and plate design. This gives it a huge56% more surface area than stock, and an even more impressive94% increase in volume. The end tanks are made with integrated pipes in order to retain the stock boost hoses, though you can also replace the hoses with Forge Motorsport'sFMKT024boost hose set if you so wish. Just like on the 8V chassis, Forge Motorsport supply a genuine Audi TTRS crash bar which Forge Motorsport modify in house in order to accept the new larger core, then finish both the crash bar and core in Forge Motorsport's standard black crackle finish powder coat formaximum longevity.
As shown in the graph above, for both tests Forge Motorsport let the car heatsoak on the dyno until the radiator fans tripped on and off (which gives an inlet temperature of 36°C), then did a dyno pull from there. This gives a more consistent result and reflects real-world driving conditions more accurately. You can easily see theForge intercooler cools much quickerand delivers a much greater drop in temperature compared to OEM.
On the stage 1 car Forge Motorsport tested on (with map and exhaust modifications), it made 470.5 bhp with a peak intake temperature of 76°C. With just this intercooler fitted and no other modifications, the same car made 520.8 bhp with a peak inlet temperature of 34°C,a gain of 50 bhp and a drop of 41°C. Gains on stage 2 mapped cars will likely be even more impressive as the stock intercooler core really starts to struggle on just stage 1 mapped cars.
The kit contains everything needed for installation including full fitting instructions, which should take around 3-4 hours.
