Porsche 911 (997.2)
Year models: 2010-2012
Engine: Turbo / Turbo S
The intercooler kit comes with hoses adapted for OEM or do88 (70 mm) y-pipe. What differs is the included hoses. Choose your version in the drop-list above.
When it comes down to performance, the do88 intercoolers significantly reduce the intake temperature! In the graph below the difference towards the OEM 997.2 units is presented. The data is collected with an AIM race logger under 5 consecutive runs in an immediate sequence. Full throttle accelerations between 50-250 km/h (30-155 mph) in a Stage 1 tuned Porsche 997. No cooldown in between, just full pull. During every test, the car was driven in Sport Plus, AC off.
The test was conducted in the following manner:
Firstly, 5 runs were made with the car equipped with OEM intercoolers. Stop, fast change of parts to the do88 intercoolers. Shakedown for a few minutes and then 5 runs made in the exact same way as with the OEM parts. The decrease in inlet air temperature is significant, peak delta is 18°C (32,4 F) see the graph below!
Cooling is important, and so is airflow. After many hours of development, refining the end tanks and choosing a core to meet our demand, the result is an intercooler that is much more efficient in terms of heat transfer as well as airflow. Using our in-house Superflow SF-1020 Probench, the airflow is verified as a complete system, with hoses on both inlet and outlet, for both the OEM 997.2 intercoolers, and the do88 performance intercoolers. What you see is what you get – MERA performance from do88!
