Description
CSF Mercedes Benz E 63 / CLS 63 AMG Front Mount Heat Exchanger
Upgrading to a larger, more efficient Heat Exchanger greatly affects the rest of the charge-air cooling system - lowering Intake Air Temperatures (IATs), thus creating cooler, denser air for increased power and an improvement in heat soak reduction. The Heat Exchanger also fits several of the 6.3L V8 AMG and 6.0L V12 AMG models as an auxiliary radiator.
Additional Information

| Vehicle Brief | CSF 8197 - Mercedes AMG Heat Exchanger |
| Market Description | If you've been following along with CSF's products, you'll see that we emerged in the AMG market with our W205 C63 AMG Heat Exchanger - it quickly became a #1 seller, so we took its momentum and created a full Mercedes-Benz AMG cooling line. CSF has mastered the charge-air cooling system and offers the Ultimate High-Performance All-Aluminum Heat Exchanger for the Mercedes Benz AMG 5.5L V8 bi-turbo engine. This AMG V8 utilizes a charge air cooler system - a water circuit (which flows through a pump into the charge coolers) and a heat exchanger (which uses the water to cool the compressed air). CSF's High-Performance Heat Exchanger is larger and cools the water more efficiently than the OEM plastic/aluminum unit. Upgrading to a larger, more efficient Heat Exchanger greatly affects the rest of the charge-air cooling system - lowering Intake Air Temperatures (IATs), thus creating cooler, denser air for increased power and an improvement in heat soak reduction. The Heat Exchanger also fits several of the 6.3L V8 AMG and 6.0L V12 AMG models as an auxiliary radiator. |
