ProCharger Air-to-Air Intercooler - Opposite Side Inlet/Outlet - 3.5 Inch - 1050 HP - AI003A-005
Large Capacity Air-to-Air Intercooler for 1,050 HP Forced Induction Builds
The ProCharger AI003A-005 Air-to-Air Intercooler is built for custom supercharger and turbocharger applications that demand exceptional cooling performance and increased airflow capacity. Featuring opposite-side 3.5-inch inlet and outlet connections, this intercooler is engineered to support applications producing up to 1,050 horsepower, making it an excellent choice for high-output street, drag racing, and custom competition builds.
Constructed with a heavy-duty bar-and-plate core and durable sheet metal end tanks, the AI003A-005 efficiently removes heat from compressed intake air before it reaches the engine. Lower intake temperatures help produce denser air, resulting in more consistent horsepower, reduced heat soak, and improved reliability during extended high-boost operation.
Designed for High-Airflow Performance
The larger 3.5-inch inlet and outlet connections provide increased airflow capability for combinations that demand more volume than traditional 3-inch intercoolers. Combined with its generous 27-inch wide by 15-inch tall core, this intercooler delivers outstanding cooling efficiency while simplifying charge pipe routing with its opposite-side inlet and outlet configuration.
Whether you're fabricating a custom ProCharger installation or assembling a serious turbocharged race vehicle, the AI003A-005 provides the cooling capacity needed to support four-digit horsepower goals.
