Product Information

Designed, manufactured, and thoroughly tested according to OE requirements. Nissens’ intercoolers are submitted to corrosion, vibration, pressure impulse, thermal expansion, and thermal performance tests.

Supreme thermal performance and extended lifespan thanks to a number of special features applied for Nissens’ intercoolers. Perfect finish and product fit, enabling a quick and smooth product installation.

Features and Benefits:

  • Tubes equipped with turbulators, ensuring better airflow and a larger surface to exchange the heat.
  • Compact fin construction with louvers increasing the heat exchange.
  • Specially designed core end plates to minimize the influence of the mechanical stress and thus break-down.
  • Plastic tanks designed with special reinforcing inner cross-bars and specially strengthened inlets and outlets.
  • Specially designed side panels with cuts to lower the influence of thermal expansion on the core construction.
  • Reinforced plastic tanks, enriched with at least 30-35% fiberglass.
  • No recycled plastics are used.
Intercooler

An intercooler is a heat exchanger used in turbocharged or supercharged engines to cool the compressed air before it enters the engine’s intake manifold.

Purpose:

  • Reduce air temperature: Compressed air from the turbo or supercharger heats up; cooler air is denser and contains more oxygen, which improves combustion efficiency.
  • Improve engine performance: Cooler, denser air allows more fuel to burn, increasing power.
  • Protect the engine: Reduces the risk of knocking and excessive thermal stress.

Intercoolers can be air-to-air (uses ambient air to cool the compressed air) or air-to-liquid (uses a coolant or water). They are typically mounted in front of the radiator or in a dedicated location in the engine bay.

Intercooler Failure Symptoms
  • Reduced Engine Power or Boost: Leaks or blockages prevent the engine from receiving properly compressed, cooled air.
  • Hissing or Whistling Noise: Air escaping from cracks or loose connections under boost produces noticeable sounds.
  • Increased Intake Air Temperature: Engine may run hotter, reducing performance and efficiency.
