The AWE Tuning 996TT Intercoolers are the best solution for owners looking to upgrade their factory system with a properly engineered solution and are capable of handling well over 700hp. Inlet Air Temperatures are a major area of concern for any turbocharged car. With many modified 996TTs producing greater than factory horsepower figures, the limits of the stock intercooling system have been far exceeded.

Compared to stock, the AWE cores are 37% larger (422 cubic inches vs 308 cubic inches). In contrast to the stock cores, ours are a high flow bar and plate style and are built to our charge row and fin count specs. These specifications resulted in improved intake temperatures by a massive 55F and improved drop pressure resistance through the core by 1 psi. Considering that extremely little trimming is involved to fit such effective units to the car, this is a huge engineering feat.



Unique Highlights of design:
Efficient bar/plate core style
Cast and machined end tanks for optimized air flow
Thick silicone boost hoses with proper profile where they mate to turbo
T-bolt clamps for extreme clamping force
Direct plug and play install that is easily reversible
+16 crank hp dyno verified

In addition to the superior core and end tank design, the AWE Tuning 996TT FMIC kit also features 6-ply silicone hoses with gentle curves to prevent bursting under pressure. Further, our hoses use a Nomex braiding for superior strength, instead of more common polyester. The very best materials and industry leading engineering separate this kit from all others on the market. To ensure OE reliability, we use CNC Machined factory style aluminum connections to mate our hoses to the factory Y-pipe.



AWE designed a cast end tank utilizing sophisticated CAD (Computer Aided Design) and CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) software to ensure proper flow distribution through the end tanks and intercooler. Tested extensively on the dyno, street and track, these intercoolers will perform flawlessly no matter the environment.





Whether you are simply running enhanced software, or are planning on a larger turbo upgrade for your car, the AWE Tuning 996TT intercoolers solve all heat related issues that come with more turbo boost. Keeping your intake air temperatures low results in more power, better engine output stability when outside temps climb, and the safety margin needed when pushing the limit.

Data was collected on a Mustang MD-AWD-500-SE AWD dynamometer, on the street, and on various race tracks. Several runs were made recording wheel power for both the stock and AWE Tuning intercooler assemblies and then averaged, with graphs of the changes shown below. All tests were done on AWE's in house 2007 997TT with a prototype 700S turbo kit installed. 93 octane fuel was used for all tests.

Below: Power test of our intercooler design vs stock. Installing the AWE Tuning 996TT intercooler system reduced heat tremendously, to produce a cooler, denser intake air charge, resulting in a very nice increase in power at high rpms (nearly 16 crank horsepower at peak when converting from the dyno sheet wheel power measurement). Even more impressive was the additional low end power released by reducing the pressure drop through the cores.
