AMS Performance Porsche 997.2TT Alpha Intercooler System (For Stock Framed Turbos) (ALP.09.09.0002-2)
The Porsche 997.2TT Intercooler System from Alpha Performance uses two 5.5" thick, large-volume cores to produce the greatest power of any upgrade on the market. The ideal fin density is provided by each core for unequaled cooling.
Alpha Performance Porsche 997.2TT Intercooler System
Prior to releasing this intercooler system on the market, our objective was to offer an intercooler system that made no compromises regarding quality, fitment, aesthetically pleasing design, or performance. For your Porsche 997.2TT, the Alpha Performance Porsche 997.2 Turbo Intercooler System is the greatest air induction cooling modification.
The Largest Intercoolers You Can Get For Your P-Car
The Alpha 997.2TT Intercooler System makes the highest power-producing upgrade on the market possible by utilizing two 5.5" thick, high-volume cores. When compared to stock, each core offers the best fin density for unparalleled cooling with a smaller pressure drop.
Computer-Aided Design Yields Maximum Results
The Alpha 997 intercooler end tanks were created by our technical team with incredibly smooth features and shape for the greatest flow, resulting in maximum horsepower. These end tanks have better flow than the boxy sheet metal end tanks found on other intercoolers since they were designed utilizing Solidworks 3D CAD software.
Cooler Intake Charge Boosts Power And Response
Ensuring a continuous flow of cool air to the intercoolers is paramount for unlocking peak performance from any intercooler. Unfortunately, some manufacturers opt for cost-cutting measures, such as removing the factory intercooler inlets. This decision, regardless of the intercooler's size, significantly hampers its effectiveness. Others might require you to resort to cutting and taping the factory shrouding to the intercooler core, a method aimed at sealing the shroud to the intercooler core but still falling short of delivering optimal performance. The Alpha 997 Intercooler System, on the other hand, takes a smarter approach. It preserves the full functionality of the stock intercooler inlets, cleverly positioned in front of each rear wheel. This strategic design ensures a constant supply of cool air, forcefully directed into our larger intercoolers encased in carbon fiber shrouds. Not only does this choice enhance the aesthetics of your vehicle, but it also leverages rigid OEM-quality carbon fiber components engineered to seamlessly connect with the Alpha Intercoolers. The outcome? A more efficient delivery of cooler ambient air surpasses other alternatives. Additionally, you won't need to worry about the removal or damage of your intercooler ducting, making this a truly hassle-free upgrade.
The graph depicted above provides a visual representation of the intake air temperatures (IAT's) experienced by the Porsche 997.2 Turbo, comparing the results between the stock intercoolers and the Alpha Intercoolers. To generate this data, the vehicle underwent a series of tests involving four consecutive 4th gear pulls, followed by a 5th gear pull towards the end of the experiment. It's important to note that during the run with the stock intercooler, the car encountered issues on the 5th gear pull. The ECU, in response to detecting elevated temperatures, closed the throttle bodies and terminated the run prematurely. What's truly intriguing is the disparity in cool-down periods between pulls. The Alpha Intercoolers not only exhibited shorter cool-down times but consistently maintained lower IAT's throughout the entire test when compared to the stock intercooler run. It's worth highlighting that these tests were conducted on the same day, employing the same dyno setup and under identical environmental conditions. Furthermore, both scenarios benefitted from the presence of two dyno fans positioned to direct airflow directly into the intercooler inlets. It's essential to underscore that on real-world road conditions, the enhanced airflow and velocity reaching the intercoolers would further boost cooling efficiency, making the Alpha Intercoolers an exceptional choice for optimizing your vehicle's performance.
Maximum Airflow For Maximum Horsepower And Torque
Another pivotal component of our advanced intercooler system is the computer-designed intercooler piping. This component showcases a carbon fiber Y-pipe, offering an impressive 40% increase in flow capacity. With a substantially larger diameter of 2.5 inches, it outshines the stock counterpart (which measures only 1.79 inches) and boasts a sleek gloss finish, ensuring long-lasting durability. The Y pipe is a meticulously crafted carbon fiber piece, thoughtfully designed to fit snugly within the confines of the engine bay. The inner walls of this pipe are engineered to facilitate the smooth flow of charged air to the intake, minimizing turbulence along the way.
Taking our commitment to enhanced airflow even further, our accomplished engineering team has delved into the realm of computer-aided design, resulting in precisely molded custom silicone couplers. These couplers provide an impeccable fit and optimized geometry, dramatically improving airflow volume and velocity. The outcome? A remarkable gain of 30+ horsepower and lightning-fast boost response, ensures you maintain a competitive edge in the world of high-performance vehicles.
What truly sets this intercooler system apart is its unwavering dedication to cooling efficiency, even as you integrate additional power-enhancing upgrades into your Porsche 997.2TT. It complements and enhances the effectiveness of other modifications, unlocking your engine's maximum horsepower potential.
NOTE: As these motorsports grade carbon fiber parts are hand laid, slight imperfections or weave pattern variances can be expected
