Forge Motorsport Front Mount Intercooler Upgrade for VW T5 Transporter

This uprated front-mounting performance intercooler has been meticulously engineered for the popular VW T5 bus or van variants. Although this unit is significantly larger than the restrictive original factory intercooler, it functions as a direct plug-in replacement requiring absolutely no additional aftermarket hoses or custom pipework modifications. By introducing a substantially larger front cross-sectional area, both the overall cooling capability and engine power recovery are optimized across the rev range. This advanced unit offers a much lower flow resistance compared to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part without adding any unwanted turbo lag.

Key Performance Features

  • Proven Performance Gains: Delivers real-world increases of 10 horsepower and 20 ft/lbs of torque on unmapped development vans.
  • Enlarged Volumetric Size: Replaces the stock 720x215x30mm unit with an efficient, enlarged 680x290x40mm core.
  • Direct Bolt-on Replacement: Reuses factory hoses and standard mounting locations seamlessly without cutting bodywork.
  • Essential for Tuning: An absolute necessity for any vehicles utilizing a tuning box or custom engine management software.
  • Durable Core Engineering: Built to withstand heavy commercial use and prolonged towing thermal stress.

Available Core Finish Variations

This premium Transporter cooling solution is manufactured in generic configurations to suit any commercial vehicle aesthetic. The kit can be ordered with a high-durability textured Black thermal finish or an uncovered, raw Silver aluminum finish to best match your van front bumper layout.


Additional Enhancements & Essential Addons

To further reinforce your forced induction tract against boost leakage, pairing this core with durable replacement silicone lines is highly recommended.
