Forge Pair of Uprated Intercoolers for Porsche 997 3.6 Twin Turbo

Porsche Performance Parts: Forge Pair of Uprated Intercoolers for Porsche 997 3.6 Twin Turbo (FMINT997)

Product Features & Benefits

Following on from our huge success in developing intercoolers for the Porsche 996, we just had to take a look at the 1st generation Porsche 997.

Again Forge started with improving airflow through the intercoolers with the use of enlarged 60mm silicone hoses, and a redesign of the intercooler end tanks. Then with the charge air sorted, we looked at the cooling air that passes over the intercooler. The intercoolers install perfectly with all the OEM mountings. The new ‘coolers are similar in dimension to the OEM units, but are measurably thicker. The real improvement came with the complete re-design of the intercooler core after testing proved a bar and plate design to be more thermally efficient in this installation.

In tests the Forge unit managed an incredible drop in intake temperature of up to 40° centigrade.  It was so dramatic we repeatedly retested and analysed the data, expecting to find we had made a mistake, but with the results substantiated this setup would allow the engine to produce more power and torque throughout the rev range , and of course with the engine running cooler, engine longevity should also be improved.
