{"product_id":"cts-a3-8p-2-0t-direct-fit-fmic-kit","title":"CTS A3 (8P) 2.0T Direct Fit FMIC Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe CTS A3 (8P) 2.0T direct-fit FMIC kit is a drop-in replacement for the OEM front-mounted intercooler, so it installs with no trimming or modification of the bumper. The factory FMIC is fine at stock boost, but once you raise boost with ECU upgrades it struggles to keep charged-air temperatures in check — and higher charged-air temps lead to boost cut and timing pull, both robbing power. This high-efficiency bar-and-plate core reduces pressure drop, so your turbo does not work as hard to reach a given boost level. The payoff is two-fold: longer turbo life from more efficient operation, and cooler, denser charge air for more power to the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEfficient bar-and-plate construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow pressure drop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains factory mounting points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo trimming of bumper or crash supports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for power levels in excess of 600HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCore dimensions: 23.00\" length x 16.5\" height x 2.00\" tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast aluminum high-efficiency end tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWill not fit 2014+ Audi A3\/S3 (8V).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShips from our Vancouver shop — KORE SPEED is proudly Canadian-owned, with no surprise cross-border duties for Canadian buyers.
