Presenting the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit. Cast End Tanks. Carbon Fiber Shrouds. Backed by AWE Tuning R&D. If you’re serious about consistent and proven power, read on.

Why we developed this kit

The stock 2.7T intercoolers become a power handicap at high boost levels, which is not surprising considering that the stock 2.7T boost level is just 8-9 psi. Every performance software on the market, let alone an upgraded turbo kit, runs almost double this boost level. This results in tangible power losses, especially when outside temperatures rise.

When investigating intercoolers, ask for data that demonstrates how the kit will perform at 20psi boost levels, which is the norm for most current 2.7T turbo kits. If you are running less boost than this, then you can rest assured that there is sufficient headroom in the design should you decide to upgrade turbos one day.

About the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit

The tested AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit design uses a closely stacked bar and plate type core, to minimize pressure drops while maximizing heat transfer. Our design target was to exceed the cooling and flow capabilities of Audi RS4 intercoolers -- and through this proven design, we have accomplished this (See detailed test results in the Performance Specs tab). In summary, the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler equals the RS4 intercooler flow rates, and definitively conquers the RS4 intercooler temperature drops.

Tested. Hard.

The construction of the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit is of the highest quality - Efficient cast end tanks are used to ensure maximum flow, and each intercooler assembly is pressure checked before it leaves our manufacturing facility. And in 2012, AWE Tuning introduced carbon fiber shrouds to the mix, producing a lighter, and more aesthetically appealing kit as well.

The bulk of our side mount intercooler testing was conducted on S4s with the AWE Tuning RSK04 kit installed. This is important to consider, given that as boost rises, so will boost drop due to core restriction. Thus, an intercooler can perform well at relatively low boost levels, but can begin to perform worse than stock if the boost drop is high enough to negate any gains seen from temperature drops.

Fitment

Not only did we want the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit to be clearly superior to the RS4 unit performance, but we also wanted to take the opportunity to design a kit that required very little modification to the US spec Audi 2.7T models during fitment. The RS4 intercooler units are made to fit the Europe only RS4, and mating them to a US spec 2.7T model requires significant cutting of both the intercoolers and the vehicle itself. Our design can be fitted in less than half the time of the typical RS4 kit. This means paying less for labor charges.

Since RS4 units were never intended to be used on the US S4 chassis, extensive modifying or tweaking of the areas around the intercoolers is needed to force fitment. The AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit was designed and built to fit the US S4 chassis, resulting in a much better, cleaner fit with very little modification required.

Some key fitment detail differences between the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit and the RS4 "kits:"

  • 100% coverage of the core face with AWE Tuning Carbon Fiber air ducts. RS4 kits leave gaps around face that lets cooling air escape
  • No modification needed to the engine belly tray with our design
  • Cores are secure and supported

Note: minor trimming may be required. Be sure to refer to the installation instructions in the tab above.

Options

The AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit comes complete with two AWE Tuning Performance Intercoolers, AWE Tuning carbon fiber shrouds (air ducts) and a detailed installation manual. No specialty tools are required for install.

The AWE Tuning carbon fiber shrouds are also available independently, should you already have the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Set and like to upgrade your shrouds to carbon fiber.

Please note, the AWE Tuning Audi 2.7T Performance Intercooler Kit is for racing use only.

** NOTE: In order to fit A6 or allroad models, minimal trimming of the bumper and shrouds is necessary.

Same plastic quality as OEM but fit was off. Make sure correct clips are compatible
Style: 121PCS Clips with Tool for Honda/Acura, Style: 121PCS Clips with Tool for Honda/Acura
I ordered the version:121PCS Push Type Retainer Clips sold by ARKOUNIX. It says it is compatible for the following vehicles: Honda Accord Civic, CR-V, Crosstour, Fit, HR-V, Insight, Odyssey, Passport. It also fits the following Acura models: ILX, MDX, RDX, RLX. UNBOXING: Inside the storage box are 4 different style plush clips and 1 removal tool (pic1). This is a variety pack with 4 different style clips. The thinking being 1 of them have to fit your vehicle. The bad thing is that means 3 of these clip styles will not fit your vehicle and they will have no value for your vehicle. The push clips that I need for my car are the longer style #4 clips (pic3). FIT: The Arkounix brans replacements are on the left (next to the tool) and my car's OEM clips are on the right so you can see how they measure up (pics3-5). These Arkounix clips are close but not an exact match. They are about 2 mm too wide to fit in my bumpers slot. For reference, my car is a Mazda 6. I understand it's not meant to be compatible but they are very similar in picture and I thought it would fit. CONCLUSION: These clips are not sized for a universal fit. This kit has 4 distinct clip sizes that are specifically designed to fit ONLY the car models listed above. If you're hoping that these clips will fit a different make and model, make sure to check the measurements of your OEM clips first. I found out the hard way that just because the clips look similar doesn't make them compatible. A width different of just 2mm was enough to make these replacement clips incompatible with my car. I can say with certainty that these 4 sizes of Arkounix brand clips will NOT fit a Mazda 6, Pontiac G5 or Toyota Corolla because, I tried fitting these clips on both of my neighbor's cars. In conclusion, these clips are made to fit the specific Honda and Acura models listed above, ONLY.
