Why the Wagner Tuning Competition Intercooler is the Best Choice for Your Mitsubishi Evolution

• Massive cooling capacity: Wagner Tuning designs this intercooler with generous stepped core dimensions of 550mm × 390mm × 95/50 mm, delivering an enormous flow area of 2,145 cm² and an impressive external charge-air volume of 17.7 liters. The newly developed Competition high-performance intercooler core ensures optimal engine cooling even under extreme conditions, resulting in maximum efficiency and consistently strong performance, even during demanding use.
• Low back pressure & flow optimization: Wagner Tuning develops thin-walled cast aluminum end tanks that are carefully analyzed and optimized using CAD engineering to ensure smooth, unrestricted airflow. This design minimizes back pressure and significantly improves overall engine efficiency.
• Lightweight construction for greater driving dynamics: Despite its large cooling surface, Wagner Tuning engineers this intercooler to be remarkably lightweight at just 9.2 kg. This contributes to overall vehicle weight optimization while enhancing driving dynamics and throttle responsiveness.
  
• Easy plug & play installation: Wagner Tuning designs this kit as a direct replacement for the OEM intercooler, allowing for a simple and straightforward installation that requires only the swap of the factory unit. The included multi-layer reinforced silicone adapters ensure a precise fit and reliable sealing.
• Maximum reliability: Wagner Tuning subjects its products to continuous quality monitoring to ensure long-term durability and first-class performance. Customer satisfaction and vehicle performance remain the company’s highest priorities.
