Wagner Tuning Competition Intercooler Kit

Universal Fitment

Part #: 200001048

Overview

The Wagner Tuning Competition Intercooler Kit is a high-performance upgrade designed for VAG 1.8 and 2.0L TSI engines. Engineered to maximize charge cooling efficiency, this intercooler kit features a significantly larger core size, measuring 640mm x 410mm x 65mm, which provides approximately 90% more volume than the stock intercooler. This increase in core size allows for improved heat dissipation and charge air cooling, supporting more consistent performance under demanding conditions. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking to enhance their vehicle’s response, reliability, and overall power potential, this intercooler is a perfect choice for those looking to optimize their turbocharged engine’s efficiency and durability. Designed with a focus on flow and cooling performance, the kit’s endtank design has been refined to eliminate OEM bottlenecks, ensuring smoother airflow and reduced pressure drop. The robust construction and high-quality materials used in this intercooler help maintain optimal operating temperatures, even during extended high-performance driving sessions. Whether you’re building a street or track car, this intercooler kit provides the cooling capacity needed to support increased boost levels and aggressive tuning.
