MASSIVE 6" Thick High Quality Garrett Intercooler Core
To effectively reduce charged air temperatures, AMS / Alpha Performance employed a vertical flow design for ultimate cooling. With its massive 22.2" x 14" x 6" bar-and-plate core, the Race X FMIC offers 148% more volume than a stock pair of GT-R intercoolers. That's 1800 square inches of cooling! The core features up to twice the fin density of most intercoolers currently on the market. This allows for more contact with cool, dense air which allows for the most pavement shredding power output you can get for your GT-R! In test vehicles making over 1700WHP, we've seen a 20 degree difference at the end of the 1/4 mile between AMS / Alpha Performance's standard Race FMIC, and the Race X FMIC.
Beautiful Billet End Tanks
AMS' engineering team designed the Alpha GT-R Race X billet intercooler end tanks with extremely smooth features and geometry for the best flow resulting in maximum horsepower. Designed using 3D CAD software, these end tanks have improved flow over boxy sheet metal end tanks found on competitor's inferior intercoolers. These large end tanks feature 3 inch CNC billet inlet and outlet ports to provide a smooth, tapered transition from intake to intercooler. The AMS team went even further by computer designing precisely molded, custom silicone couplers to provide perfect fitment and optimized geometry for improved airflow volume and velocity - providing unmatched power without sacrificing response.
The Difference is in the Details
This intercooler takes full advantage of the GT-R's available frontal area while improving functionality of the stock intercooler shroud. For even better channeling of air, a supplied bridge plate and shroud plates create a tight seal surrounding the core. This seal ensures that cool air entering the shroud is funneled through the core. The plates stop air from escaping through the sides, above and below the intercooler, maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of the intercooler core. These are features often overlooked by the competition. This intercooler does require cutting of the factory crash beam and riveting or welding in the supplied beam plate.
Engineer. Build. Perform.
Just like all Alpha Performance GT-R components, there is absolutely no doubt about durability, reliability, and fitment of this intercooler. The Alpha Race X Intercooler mounts firmly to the core support with gusseted aluminum brackets. All 5-ply silicone couplers provide superior strength and fasten securely using Murray Turbo Seal clamps. The intercooler itself is pressure tested to 50psi and checked for leaks in order to pass inspection. All of this is done to ensure your Alpha Race X Intercooler lasts the lifetime of your high horsepower GT-R!
