Then with the charge air sorted, we looked at the cooling air that passes over the intercooler. In a similar fashion to the 996, testing showed that the original OEM ducting performed brilliantly. So, satisfied that it was up to the specification needed, we thought we should aim to make a true directly replacement kit, by designing the intercoolers to install perfectly with all the OEM mountings. The new intercoolers are similar in dimension to the OEM units, but are measurably thicker. The real improvement came with the complete re-design of the intercooler core, after testing proved a bar and plate design to be more thermally efficient in this installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn tests, the Forge unit managed creditable\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eincrease of 20hp\u003c\/strong\u003e. This installation allows the engine to produce more power and torque throughout the rev range, and of course with the engine running cooler, engine longevity should also be improved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe use of the original ducting and mountings results in very tidy and efficient installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen fitted to a remapped vehicle, just the intercooler alone gave an increase in mid-range power of approximately 30Hp and 50Nm of torque at 4500rpm. With this power increase, the feel and drive of the FK8 is completely transformed due to the massive increase in power throughout most of the rev range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInlet air temperatures have been halved with this superbly engineered intercoolers. This results in the forge intercooler being one of the first and best modifications any enthusiast would make to gain safer running on their tuned vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe intercooler is available in red or black with a tough durable and corrosion resistant powder coating to ensure the maximum heat dissipation and product longevity even in the worst environments. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e+30Hp and 50Nm of torque at 4500rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e89% more volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThin wall cast endtanks for superior flow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits the vehicle without any cutting or further modifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures machined recesses in the intercooler mating flanges to accept the OEM sealing O-rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied with all fittings required to fit the intercooler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally you may purchase the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003ca style=\"color: #2b00ff; text-decoration: underline;\" title=\"Forge Logo Stencil\" href=\"https:\/\/www.Performance%20Parts%20Direct.co.uk\/products\/forge-logo-stencil\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eForge Logo Stencil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003ethat you can use to spray or paint onto the intercooler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePorsche 911 Turbo 997.2 (2010-2013)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance Gains\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ca title=\"Forge Porsche 997 Gen 2 Intercooler Upgrade - Performance Parts Direct UK\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1272\/9301\/files\/Forge_Porsche_997_Gen_2_Intercooler_Upgrade-4_2048x2048.jpg?v=1600868055\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1272\/9301\/files\/Forge_Porsche_997_Gen_2_Intercooler_Upgrade-4_2048x2048.jpg?v=1600868055\" alt=\"Forge Porsche 997 Gen 2 Intercooler Upgrade - Performance Parts Direct UK\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.forgemotorsport.co.uk\/?download_id=122\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1272\/9301\/files\/Download_Installalation_Guide_2020_Aug_Cropped_2ac8f715-ae3a-4856-9bd7-de224ba537bf_2048x2048.jpg?v=1599214826\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFMINT997G2\u003c\/span\u003e (Black Hose)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFMINT997G2-B (Blue Hose)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFMINT997G2-R (Red Hose)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufactured by\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Motorsports\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll Forge Motorsport products come with a limited lifetime warranty.
