When intake air temperatures begin to rise, the engine loses power, and the car starts to feel sluggish precisely when the load is greatest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRacingLine solves this problem with a massive \u003cstrong\u003ePlate \u0026amp; Bar intercooler\u003c\/strong\u003e featuring a stepped core, designed for maximum cooling capacity within the limited space of the MQB-A0 platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to the factory cooler, the RacingLine intercooler offers \u003cstrong\u003e56% more volume\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e25% more frontal area\u003c\/strong\u003e. This allows for significantly better control of intake temperatures and more stable power during multiple accelerations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRacingLine's primary goal was to find the right balance between maximum cooling and minimal pressure drop. Thus, the intercooler is larger and more efficient without adding unnecessary turbo lag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cast end tanks are designed for minimal turbulence and good airflow distribution across the entire depth of the core. The intercooler uses a \u003cstrong\u003e60mm inlet and outlet\u003c\/strong\u003e, meaning it can be used with both factory pressure pipes and upgraded RacingLine boost pipe \/ boost hose solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe installation is specifically designed for the Polo GTI AW platform and requires no cutting, drilling, or modifications to the crash bar.
