Description
CSF Intercooler
Like most turbocharged vehicles, the 3.0L Twin Turbo motor powering the 992 experiences high levels of heat soak and progressively increasing IATs even in modestly spirited driving conditions. This results in the ECU pulling engine timing and decreasing power output. The CSF Intercoolers solve this issue and allow vehicles to perform at optimal levels consistently and for prolonged periods of time. As with CSF's other products produced through our PWR partnership, the new 992 Intercoolers feature 100% TIG-welded billet aluminum end tanks. This is a very significant upgrade compared to the OEM crimped plastic composite end tanks. OEM plastic/composite end tanks have been known to crack under heavy boost pressure. The CNC machined billet end tanks are ready to withstand increased boost from higher performance tunes, as well as upgraded turbochargers.
Additional Information
The CSF by PWR 992 3.0T Intercooler System features Formula-1 grade cores which offer the greatest reduction in IATs and help eliminate heat soak. The Billet Aluminum construction offers the greatest strength and durability possible.

| Vehicle Brief | CSF 8217 - 992 Carrera Intercooler |
| Market Description | CSF designed and engineered the 992 Carrera intercooler to be a true Plug-and-Play "Drop-in Fit" unit. Utilizing all factory mounting points, the installation is straightforward and requires no modifications. The most important feature of the CSF by PWR 992 Carrera Intercooler System is the Formula-1 grade intercooler cores. CSF's strategic relationship with PWR has allowed the inclusion of these cores, which is unlike any other available in the performance aftermarket. These cores are the same style used in other CSF air-to-air systems previously developed for the 992 Turbo/S and 991 GT2RS with incredible results. The PWR cores eliminate heat soak and lower Intake Air Temperatures (IATs) much more efficiently than traditional Bar & Plate or Tube & Fin designs. The traditional intercooler cores that are typically much heavier and larger to improve cooling capacity. Because the PWR core is able to achieve greater performance results in a smaller size, CSF was able to design the intercooler system to fit in the stock location using all the OEM hardware, ducts, and shrouds for an easy drop if fit installation. Like most turbocharged vehicles, the 3.0L Twin Turbo motor powering the 992 experiences high levels of heat soak and progressively increasing IATs even in modestly spirited driving conditions. This results in the ECU pulling engine timing and decreasing power output. The CSF Intercoolers solve this issue and allow vehicles to perform at optimal levels consistently and for prolonged periods of time. As with CSF's other products produced through our PWR partnership, the new 992 Intercoolers feature 100% TIG-welded billet aluminum end tanks. This is a very significant upgrade compared to the OEM crimped plastic composite end tanks. OEM plastic/composite end tanks have been known to crack under heavy boost pressure.
