Hi 😊
▶ In this video you will see step by step how I replaced the intercooler in Seat Leon MK2. Currently in the car there was an all-metal IC from the Audi S3. It is true that it is more efficient than the original IC, but not as efficient as the central one because it is mounted between the coolant radiator and the air conditioning radiator, so after the engine warms up, the IC is heated by the radiators, which decreases its efficiency.
▶ The front/central IC is placed in front of the radiator, so it is cooled all the time while driving and thus more efficient.
▶ After changing the IC, I noticed changes like:
- faster response to gas
- smoother screwing of the turbocharger
- no loss of power at the upper revs
- higher fuel consumption
▶ The car is currently before tuning so it's hard to say if the IC change itself affected the engine power. These are my feelings after the change.
▶ List of parts you need if you want to do the same in your car.
