Summer is around the corner, Im sure you want to keep Your AIT down and no one wants their car to suffer from heat soak.

This is one of the best options to keep your car running cooler/stronger this summer!

What is intercooler heat soak?
Heat soak is when the intercooler can't dissipate the heat that it absorbs from the turbo fast enough. When an intercooler can't cool the charge air by removing the heat from it, it loses its effectiveness. This explains why turbo cars tend to run slower or have slightly less power when the weather is warm.
