DO88 Audi RS3 (8V/8Y) Intercooler – ICM-420 - 1000+BHP Capable.

The biggest obstacle when designing a performance intercooler for the RS3 is the OEM crash bar, which often limits both the physical size and ambient airflow to the intercooler. That’s why we’ve decided to design a new chromoly steel crash bar with Ø40mm (1 5/8”) tubing. It installs just like the OEM unit but allows unrestricted ambient airflow and the room to install our massive intercooler. All this while maintaining mounting points for your ACC Adaptive Cruise Control radar sensor and ambient temperature sensor. Naturally, a formal crash test has not been conducted and it may not meet road legality standards, but the durability of this crash bar makes it ideal for those building a high-performance track car.

Our Intercooler core, designed by the esteemed Garrett Motorsport, utilizes advanced Aerospace technology. The densely packed, thin cooling fins build the 97 mm (3 ¹³/₁₆”) thick core that offers efficient heat transfer, thereby ensuring optimal performance. The airflow over the core is efficiently distributed via our uniquely designed, free-form cast end tanks. After many iterations of CFD analysis, 3D-printing, and flow bench tests we’ve perfected a design that offers maximum airflow. Form follows function here – our 80mm machined connections far exceed the OEM design, eliminating bottlenecks and allowing high power outputs. Based on our knowledge, we think do88 is the only brand that has gone above and beyond by enlarging the hose connections to eliminate those bottlenecks.
