Mishimoto 2015+ VW MK7 Golf TSI / GTI / R Performance Intercooler

The mantra behind the grandfather of all hot-hatchbacks has long since been that big things come in small packages. The 2015+ Golf TSI/GTI/R's and its intercooling system are about to receive a much-needed overhaul with the Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Kit. The stock system can be best described as the meat in an intercooler sandwich. It's no wonder with it placed directly between the radiator and AC condenser that this tube-and-fin constructed intercooler has trouble keeping up. Where this lighter core coupled with plastic end tanks might be suited for mass production and tame street driving, it will struggle to keep your intake air temperatures down under more intense driving, especially after the boost is turned up. The Mishimoto 2015+ Volkswagen MK7/MK8 Golf TSI/GTI/R Performance Intercooler, armed with an arsenal of cooling technology, takes the place of the stock intercooler. Our engineers were able to squeeze in a larger core, increasing the overall volume by 89-percent over stock and bumping up the external fin surface area by 162-percent. On top of the larger core, our all-aluminum, TIG-welded intercooler features a more robust bar-and-plate construction for better heat dissipation characteristics. In addition, the cast aluminum end tanks are integrated with airflow diverters to ensure use of the full core. When combined, our innovations for the MK7 intercooling system yielded max power gains of 14 whp and 12 wtq on the stock tuning. In addition, our charged air cooler dropped intercooler outlet temperatures by 23 F over stock equipment. Our 2015+ Volkswagen MK7/MK8 Golf TSI/GTI/R Performance Intercooler also includes a pair of CNC-machined aluminum mounting brackets and the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty for a precise and worry-free installation.This Part Fits: Year Make Model Submodel 2015-2020 Audi A3 Premium 2015-2020 Audi A3 Premium Plus 2015-2019 Audi A3 Prestige 2015-2016 Audi A3 TDI Premium 2015-2016 Audi A3 TDI Premium Plus 2015-2016 Audi A3 TDI Prestige 2019 Audi A3 Titanium 2015-2019 Audi A3 Quattro Premium 2015-2019 Audi A3 Quattro Premium Plus 2015-2019 Audi A3 Quattro Prestige 2020 Audi S3 Premium 2015-2020 Audi S3 Premium Plus 2015-2019 Audi S3 Prestige 2015-2021 Audi TT Quattro Base 2018-2021 Audi TT RS Quattro Base 2016-2021 Audi TTS Quattro Base 2016 Volkswagen Golf Base 2015 Volkswagen Golf Launch Edition 2015-2019 Volkswagen Golf S 2015-2016,2018-2019 Volkswagen Golf SE 2015-2016 Volkswagen Golf SEL 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI S 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI SE 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI SEL 2020-2021 Volkswagen Golf TSi 2017 Volkswagen Golf Wolfsburg Edition 2017-2019 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack S 2017-2019 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack SE 2017-2019 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack SEL 2023 Volkswagen Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition 2015-2019,2022-2024 Volkswagen Golf R Base 2016 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen Limited Edition 2015-2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen S 2015-2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen SE 2015-2018 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen SEL 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen TDI S 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen TDI SE 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen TDI SEL 2023 Volkswagen GTI 40th Anniversary Edition 2015-2024 Volkswagen GTI Autobahn 2019 Volkswagen GTI Rabbit Edition 2015-2024 Volkswagen GTI S 2015-2024 Volkswagen GTI SE 2017 Volkswagen GTI Sport
