Description

The heart of the ER Competition FMIC is the massive 20″ x11x3″ (24″ x11x3″ with end tanks) high density bar and plate intercooler core. It features 660 cubic inches intercooler core. Through extensive testing of different types of intercooler cores (tube & fin, bar & plate) Evolution Racewerks found that the high density bar and plate core to be the most efficient. Independent testing has shown that Evolution Racewerks FMIC is so efficient in cooling that it has cooled intake air temperatures (IAT) to almost ambient (outside) temperatures. Evolution Racewerks also did extensive testing on the proper size to use to effectively cool the hot charged air from these big turbo upgrades as well as fight off “heatsoaking” (when the intercooler cannot transfer heat away faster than the heat building up from the hot intake air). “Heatsoaking” is not an issue at all as shown by consistency of the IAT staying in the same temperature range throughout the whole RPM powerband. Also Evolution Racewerks FMIC recovers so fast after a full throttle pull that once you shift, it recovers completely. This is why pull after pull, Evolution Racewerks FMIC does not “heatsoak”. Beat on it all day long and the IAT s will consistently be near ambient temperatures. Evolution Racewerks Competition FMIC is just what it is, designed for competition. The other intercoolers may be adequate if you lived your life a mile at a time (with hours between runs to cool down), they will definitely “heatsoak” under harsher conditions like road racing where you re at full throttle for at least 20 minutes. Imagine you pegged behind the rear bumper of the car in front of you. With no cool airflow flowing through your intercooler, it will “heatsoak” very fast, loosing you that very precious power you need to pass the car ahead of you. The FMIC then becomes a heatsink. Since Evolution Racewerks FMIC s are quite large, it can “hold” more heat longer before it heatsoaks, giving you extra valuable time with all the power you need to make the pass. The Competition Series Core features a thick 3″ core. This has many advantages over a thin core that many of Evolution Racewerks competitors use. With a thicker core, Evolution Racewerks do not need to go tall to get the same intercooler size. This allows better internal flow characteristics as the airflow does not need to travel upwards to the top of the core. Also, intake airflow wants to travel through the core on the path of least resistance. Because of this, intake airflow will want to travel towards the bottom of the core straight to the outlet. This makes the top of the core less efficient as airflow will not want to travel through that section. At the same time, Evolution Racewerks FMIC does not block the entire face of the radiator. This allows direct airflow for the radiator over the top of the intercooler ensuring a proper cooling system. Everything needs to work correctly on the car. Without having good airflow to the radiator, the car will overheat. With it s size and ability to support over 600hp, it is the “last intercooler you will ever buy”, no matter what size turbo you decide to run in the future. Unlike turbo kits and other parts where the main power adder is constant, intercooler gains (or recovery) is based largely on how badly the current intercooler setup working and will vary from setup to setup. Dyno graphs do not properly show the performance of intercoolers, intake air temperatures do as that is the job of the intercooler. Evolution Racewerks can take a car with a huge turbo upgrade; test it with the OEM Side Mount Intercooler (SMIC) and run 30 lbs. of boost. Then test it with Evolution Racewerks FMIC. We d probably gain 20-40 wheel horsepower from that. But does that properly show how good the intercooler is? Will most people see these kinds of gains? Showing the intake air temperatures against ambient temperatures shows how efficient the intercooler cools the hot charged intake air and is the best way to judge how good the intercooler works. With the big turbo upgrades available today, 300+ hp A4 2. 0 are now becoming common place. As horsepower level start exceeding 300 hp, the OEM intercooler hose/piping (2. 0″ ) itself starts to become a restriction. When intake air starts to reach the speed of sound (Mach 1) the piping size itself becomes a restriction (and yes, Evolution Racewerks pulled out the equations and calculated the numbers). With that in mind, the ER Competition FMIC features 2. 25″ “charge” (turbo to intercooer) hard piping and 2.5″ “cold” (intercooler to throttle body) hard piping to properly match the higher flow rates of these big turbos. The smaller “charge” pipe helps keep airflow velocity high to fill the large FMIC, which helps increase response and reduce turbo lag while the larger “cold” pipe helps with high end flow (matches OEM throttle body size). Evolution Racewerks extensive testing has shown that higher top end power is achieved with the larger piping. Also, all OEM hose is replaced with complete hard piping and run as short as possible while taking the least amount of bends possible which increases response, decrease turbo lag, and reduces pressure drop back to OEM levels if not better.
Evolution Racewerks B7 A4 Competition FMIC requires no cutting of the OEM bumper cover or any grill covers at all Evolution Racewerks end tank design with it s inlet/outlet curving inwards towards to body makes this possible. This technique was pioneered by us with Evolution Racewerks B6 Competition FMIC and has made it s way to the B7 Competition FMIC.
