Forge present the "Twintercooler "for SEAT Leon 2 .0 lt FSiT

[ForgeMotorsport]

Another Twintercooler is added to the range for owners of the SEAT Leon 2.0 FSiT. With the same remarkable performance as seen with the previous Twintercoolers on the Golf & Skoda its sure to be a winner

For the new 2.0 L FSIT engines there is one sure way to improve on the charge air cooling by using the Forge "TWINtercooler" this ground breaking innovation features our unique twin-core design which has added greater efficiency throughout the entire RPM band beyond that of a single core setup, We have achieved this by using the latest core technology with high flow end tank designs to achieve a huge reduction in inlet temperatures.

We spent many months testing various designs and the Twintercooler design emerged as the clear winner. This is a bolt-on kit that retains the use of the OEM intercooler to produce both horsepower AND torque, but more importantly, a HUGE reduction in inlet temperatures and increased flow efficiency.

A reduction in temps of up to a peak of 20 degrees Fahrenheit from 102 to 82 at 6600 RPM!

my.. that car looks familiar

Cheers for another great product forge Came out well on the rolling road.

Just waiting for your new diverter valve now!

whats the benfits mr forge of using a "twincooler" set up on the fsi-t' , is it overall packaging , handyness or is there something more important , hows the gains compare to the normal removal of old IC and new FMIC set up ?

just curious cheers

Can i ask why theres three ends?

 

[stoneyfordNI]

it links into the standard intercooler instead of replacing it , why i dunno , hopefully forge will reply

it would need 3 ends cos its not a replacement its an addition

does this have 2 inlets and two out lets so basically two intercoolers one behind the other then!

 

[DanGB]

As said in the description it uses the standard intercooler as well as this new intercooler. Hence the name 'twintercooler'. Forge found it worked best if both intercoolers were used.

Ah i see, when they said twin core i thought they meant the core of the new one was a twin set up!

extra lag? no?

looking forward to reading the theory behind the design, theres a few inconsistencies i dont understand

 

[DanGB]

There is a slight pressure pressure drop, less than a psi if I remember correctly. but there is no lag or anything.

In our long testing progress and procedure
we first logged and tested the original intercooler .It was impressive to say the least .
We then tested a larger front mounted intercooler on its own .
This ran hotter than the standard oem and a large loss of torque

We repeated the above proceedure with 3 different types of air core , all ran hotter than the OEM with poor torque performance .
We were struggling to improve on the factory original

We then plumbed in the Twintercooler set up that utilises the OEM intercooler and the Forge intercooler together , this set up showed an impressive and significant drop in temperature over the standard with minimal increase in pressure drop , and an improvement in torque and mid range power .

This gave us the results that we were looking for , on a standard car , then further test were carried out on a modified car showing good gains .

This intercooler will give you improved performance whether you are standard , chipped or ultimately going for a big turbo set up.

It also means you can keep the OEM intercooler , which is a bonus because the removal of this part is a very difficult proceedure ,

Further independant testing by very reputable tuners in Germany , Swizerland and the USA confirmed what we had found to be the most efficient set up availible

laguna one would have been better
