The system has been engineered to be as direct a replacement as possible to the stock unit, requiring only minor modifications for a clean, factory-like installation. The increased thermal efficiency provided by the Dinan dual core intercooler will also enhance turbocharger reliability in addition to overall power. On a stock vehicle, power gains can be had from 4000 RPM and beyond (when the car is in boost). In order to achieve the best performance, the intercooler should be paired eith engine tuning as it can provide additional optimization of the intercooler. In particular, with Dinan flash software the power band is extended to be more robust and powerful from 5000 RPM to redline whereas without tuning the bulk of the gains are from 6000 RPM to redline.
