Product Description
CSF 2020+ Audi SQ7 / SQ8 High Performance Intercooler System - Thermal Black 8280B
Optimize the performance of your 2020+ Audi SQ7 or SQ8 with the CSF High-Performance Intercooler System in sleek Thermal Black. Designed to handle the demands of high-performance and tuned vehicles, this system uses the same advanced intercooler cores found in CSF’s air-to-air systems for some of the world’s most powerful performance vehicles, including the Lamborghini Urus, Audi RS Q8, Porsche 992 Turbo/S, and Audi RS6/RS7. With cutting-edge technology and engineering, these intercoolers drastically reduce heat soak and lower Intake Air Temperatures (IATs) for consistently high performance.
The 4.0L twin-turbo V8 engine in the Audi SQ7/SQ8 is prone to heat soak, causing OEM intercoolers to struggle with keeping IATs in check during spirited driving or in modified/tuned setups. Elevated IATs result in the ECU pulling timing, leading to a drop in engine power. The CSF by PWR intercoolers solve this issue by maintaining optimal performance levels over extended periods, allowing your SQ7 or SQ8 to run at full power without the negative effects of heat soak.
