Does the AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler work with stock piping?

Yes. The AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler is a direct bolt-on that works with stock piping or most aftermarket pipe kits designed for the stock intercooler, and requires no cutting or trimming. Note that the inlet and outlet silicone differs between OEM and AMS intercooler piping.

What power level is the AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler designed for?

The AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler (Alpha) is optimal for GT-Rs producing up to 1000HP, approximately 800 whp. It is the same race-proven unit used on the AMS Alpha 9 package, backed by numerous 9-second time slips.

How much more does the AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler flow than stock?

The AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler has over 75% more internal flow area than the stock intercooler, using a Garrett bar-and-plate core measuring 9 inches tall x 22 inches wide x 4 inches thick — the same core supplier behind AMS's world-record 1400HP drag car.

Is the AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler hard to install?

No. The AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler is a direct bolt-on with A356 T6 cast aluminum end tanks that include integrated OEM-location mounting points, so it fits like an OEM piece with no cutting or trimming. It comes with custom molded silicone couplers and hose clamps.

Which R35 GT-R model years does the AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler fit?

The AMS Performance Nissan GT-R intercooler fits all R35 GT-R model years from 2009-present with the VR38DETT 3.8L twin-turbo V6 engine, bolting up cleanly with an OEM-like fit and finish.

Description

AMS Performance Stock Piping Compatible Front Mount Intercooler for R35 Nissan GT-R

Nissan GT-R intercooler from AMS Performance is the Alpha front mount intercooler (FMIC) for the R35 GT-R (2009-present), a direct bolt-on that works with stock piping and requires no cutting or trimming. Backed by numerous 9-second time slips, this AMS Nissan GT-R intercooler is the same race-proven unit used on AMS’s Alpha 9 GT-R package, most effective for GT-Rs producing up to 1000HP (approximately 800 whp). It has over 75% more internal flow area than stock and bolts on so cleanly you would swear it was an OEM Nissan piece.

Why the AMS Performance Nissan GT-R Intercooler?

The Alpha is the direct bolt-on tier of the AMS Nissan GT-R intercooler line, ideal for owners who want a big flow gain without changing piping or cutting the car. It delivers over 75% more internal flow area than the stock intercooler while bolting up to stock piping or most aftermarket pipe kits designed for the stock intercooler. The A356 T6 cast aluminum end tanks are designed in SolidWorks 3D CAD with smooth features and geometry that flow better than sheet-metal end tanks, and they include integrated OEM-location mounting points for easy installation. Custom, precisely molded silicone couplers optimize airflow volume and velocity through the larger 3″ inlet and outlet ports. The one-piece construction is more efficient and better looking than the two-piece designs some competitors use, and it carries the AMS logo on the front of the car.

Race-Proven Core and Construction

The AMS Nissan GT-R intercooler uses a Garrett bar-and-plate core measuring 9″ tall x 22″ wide x 4″ thick the best-performing core on the market, produced by the same company behind AMS’s world-record 1400HP drag car and multi-championship time attack team. Each Alpha intercooler is hand TIG-welded in a jig for a perfect fit and pressure tested to 50psi to ensure maximum performance, details often overlooked by the competition. The result is an OEM-like fit and finish with race-proven durability.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
