Airtec Stage 2 Intercooler Upgrade Ford Focus RS MK2

Focus RS Mk2 AIRTEC Intercooler upgrade with Air-Ram Scoop, 60mm core – Pro Series Back or Silver finish (comes with full brackets and fittings included)

AIRTEC’s latest intercooler for the Focus RS, comes with high flow 60mm core and smooth flow end tanks, which in turn will increase power, torque & also lower ACT, this could possibly be the best RS intercooler available.

Why a Stage 2? 
With Focus RS tuning being pushed to new levels with 400 packages becoming the norm, we knew a bigger better flowing intercooler would be a great addition to these new exciting power packages.
694.8 BHP ROLLING ROAD TESTED!!
AIRTEC Stage 2 Intercooler, the market leading 2.5″ big boost pipe kit makes it a must upgrade for your 400 BHP Focus RS (Rolling road recorded unofficial 733 bhp/650 lbft, but moved on rollers @ end of run)

The Problem we had is that the original design Airtec Intercooler is so good! And had been proven on a 500 bhp Focus, so we went about making something good ‘even better’. We knew our bar ‘n’ plate core was great at displacing heat and very close to unbeatable on rolling road testing, so the 60mm core was upgraded to a 65mm unit. Then we looked at flow, this would make or break the stage 2, making the Air flow as easily as possible and making sure there wasn’t any sharp corners to slow the Air down. Check out the Un-finished silver Intercooler, this clearly shows the efforts & design that went into the stage 2 end tanks, simply stunning!

TESTING:
Test results Carried out at Jamsport rolling road. Intercoolers being testing for ACT (Air Charge Temperature)

AIRTEC Stage 1 Intercooler: 
Air temp into Intercooler. 141 degrees
Air temp out of Intercooler. 34degrees
AIRTEC Stage 2 Intercooler: 
Air temp into Intercooler. 149 degrees
Air temp out of Intercooler. 26 degrees

We also saw power gains of 20 bhp mid range & 30 lbft torque increase. This was simply by swapping from Stage 1 to Stage 2.
