AIRTEC Motorsport Intercooler Upgrade for Land Rover Defender TD5 and 2.2/2.4 TDci
As part of our expanding Land Rover product range, AIRTEC Motorsport is proud to launch our uprated intercooler package for the Defender TD5 and 2.2/2.4 TDci models.
In order to ensure there is no noticeable loss in performance during extended periods of driving, We have developed a larger, freer-flowing intercooler that is a direct replacement for the smaller and more restrictive OEM item.
Our solution to increasing the intercoolers size and performance within the confines of the limited space behind the grille is based upon a much larger single pass core that is 65% taller than the original. This offers a massive 134% increase in overall capacity in comparison to the original intercooler, as well as a 55% increase in frontal area over standard, which allows it to make the most of the air flow provided.
Together with our high-flow, moulded one-piece cast end tanks to ensure flow is directed correctly and efficiently, the AIRTEC Motorsport intercooler offers much greater efficiency and volume over standard.
The outlets remain at 50mm each side to fit with the original boost hoses and the intercooler requires only minor trimming of the original plastic mountings to fit in place. It will fit with all models, including those with air-con.
