Peron Intercooler Kit
« on: August 07, 2014, 04:54:31 pm »
Fresh in this week.  Been waiting a while for this cooler to turn up.  I don't really get excited by intercoolers.  Generally they are all the same with nothing that really sets them apart from each other.  This one on the other hand is something special.  Main features are:

Tightly woven fin design to capture more cool air
Thermo black coating to keep the radiating heat off the cooler
Plated end tanks to keep the weight down
Huge core at 55mm x 650mm x 440mm

Here are some pics of the cooler:











Retail price is £660, but currently offering them for £600

So as a rough guide, how much more % wise would this be more efficient than the THS cooler Alex?   :popcornsoda:

Does this come with hoses Alex? Would it be the same fitment as the S3?

Tempted with this, while my engines out  :evilgrin:

Not fitted mine yet.  I know how my THS performs so its easy to compare once it goes on.

Looks a nice bit of kit with similar dimensions to the Wagner coolers but cheaper... Look forward to hear how these perform :evilgrin:

THS is 610mm x 415mm x 57mm

So

2531.5cm2 for the THS
2860cm2 for the Peron

So ~13% greater surface area
