What Does an Intercooler Do?
If you’ve ever asked “what is an intercooler” or “what does an intercooler do,” the answer is simple: as a turbo compresses air, that air heats up and becomes less dense. A turbo intercooler cools that charge air before it enters the engine, restoring density and helping combat the heat that comes with more boost. On a forced-induction platform like the 997.2 Turbo, upgrading the car intercooler is one of the most effective ways to keep intake temperatures in check when you add power.
