do88 Performance MERA Intercooler Kit for 996 Porsche 911 Turbo, Turbo S, Turbo X50 and GT2 [ICM-410-OEM/ICM-410-do88]

do88 Performance MERA Intercooler Kit for 996 Porsche 911 Turbo, Turbo S, Turbo X50 and GT2 [ICM-410-OEM/ICM-410-do88]

Introducing the do88 Performance MERA Intercooler Kit for the 996 Porsche 911 Turbo, designed for optimal performance and efficiency. Featuring precision-engineered cast end tanks, this kit enhances airflow and cooling efficiency across the entire core. A custom-designed upper ambient air guide, created in a 3D-scanned environment, ensures perfect integration with the vehicle’s existing components. The kit includes large 70mm connections and 3D-designed, CFD-tested hoses made from high-temp materials that withstand up to 464°F, optimizing airflow and durability. Carbon ducts with precise body seals maximize heat transfer by directing all air through the core. Compatible with OEM or do88’s 63.5mm Y-pipe, this intercooler kit is tailored to enhance your Porsche’s performance by ensuring superior airflow and cooling.

Testing

• When it comes to enhancing performance, the do88 intercoolers significantly lower intake temperatures. A comparison graph, illustrating the performance against the OEM 996 units, showcases data collected using an AIM race logger during three consecutive full-throttle accelerations from 30-155 mph in a Stage 1 tuned Porsche 996, with no cooldown periods between runs. Initially, three runs were conducted with the vehicle equipped with OEM intercoolers. Following a rapid swap to do88 intercoolers and a brief shakedown, three additional runs were performed under identical conditions. The results highlight a substantial decrease in inlet air temperature, with a peak delta of 105.8°F. Cooling and airflow are crucial components of performance. After extensive development hours refining the end tanks and selecting a core that meets stringent demands, the result is an intercooler that significantly enhances both heat transfer and airflow. Using the in-house Superflow SF-1020 Probench, airflow is verified as a complete system, including hoses at both inlet and outlet, for both the OEM 996 intercoolers and the do88 performance intercoolers.
