HKS has increased the size of the core over the stock to increase the airflow over the core.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew type cooling fin now offers improved heat radiation. Core end tanks have been designed to flow the compressed air evenly across the whole intercooler core. All these factors will maximize the reduction of intake air temperature which increases air density. Increasing the range of fueling and ignition settings makes it possible to deliver more power and torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe K20C engine achieves 320ps with 2.0L displacement, and the boost pressure exceeds 150kPa. Since the stock intercooler’s capacity is insufficient, the engine intake air temperature rises to nearly 90°C.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Loss Reduction = Response Improvement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn pursuing intercooler performance, reducing pressure loss becomes just as important as cooling efficiency. If the pressure drop is significantly high, throttle response and the torque is reduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, pressure drop and cooling efficiency are conflicting properties. By reducing pressure drop, cooling efficiency also suffers. A large cause of pressure drop is the cross-sectional area of the tubes in which the air flows and the inner fin layout and shape. HKS has emphasized cooling efficiency yet achieved a low-resistance design with thin fins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTube design has been also considered in many possibilities and increasing the cross-sectional area. With these measures in place, high levels of cooling efficiency have been achieved without sacrificing pressure drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECH SPEC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe newly designed 100mm wide core is approximately 200% of the stock in the core capacity.
