    :: ECS Tuning :: FORGE Motorsport ~ N54 ~ Frount Mount Intercooler ~ NOW Available!!!



    ECS Tuning proudly presents...
    FORGE Front Mount Intercooler

    Through extensive testing, Forge Motorsport found the perfect combination for your N54 with this bar and plate design intercooler. The average inlet temperature was 15 degrees Celsius colder than that of a stock intercooler.

    The larger than stock size is an easy bolt on without any modification. Complete kit includes new silicone hoses and clamps with complete instructions.

    Would be nice if the person using excel re-took elementary math and properly labeled the damn thing.

    for 1000, personally I'd go after the HPF one just because they are beyond proven with the r&d

    but that's just me

    It seems pretty obvious it's temp in Celsius versus Time in seconds.

    I'd be willing to bet that ECS would throw in free shipping
    to make sure they get the sale...

    I like the ECS because it doesn't use the snap-locking connectors. They seem like they are asking to fail, and make upgrading harder.

    Yeah guys its Forge, same guys who make your favorite BPV's and such. Honestly, this is more proven than HPFs because they actually have inlet and outlet temperature deltas. HPFs looks very nice, but is sickly thick I think its going to create a high pressure area whereas this seems a lot more reasonable. If they're the same thickness, at least this one has data.

    FORGE's attention to detail and quality really is second to none!

    Thanks for the feedback!
