The CSF High-Performance Bar & Plate Intercooler Core, measuring 25" x 12" x 4.5", represents a pinnacle of engineering excellence tailored for demanding automotive applications. Designed to support up to 1200 WHP, this horizontal flow core is an ideal component for custom high-performance intercooler assemblies, ensuring optimal cooling efficiency under extreme boost conditions. CSF’s commitment to quality is evident in every aspect of this product, from its meticulous manufacturing process to rigorous testing protocols.
Each intercooler core is hand-built within a controlled clean room environment at the CSF factory, where technicians employ specialized jigs and fixtures to guarantee a perfectly straight core. The use of gloves during assembly ensures that surfaces remain pristine, facilitating superior brazing quality and providing a flawless base for subsequent welding operations. This careful attention to detail translates into enhanced durability and reliability, critical for high-performance applications.
The core features a sophisticated multi-louvered, high-precision staggered fin design on both the ambient and pressure sides. This advanced fin architecture maximizes heat transfer efficiency, enabling the intercooler to maintain lower intake air temperatures and improve overall engine performance. The bar and plate construction further enhances structural integrity, making it well-suited for the rigorous demands of motorsport and tuning environments.
Reliability is paramount, and to that end, each unit undergoes individual pressure testing at 120 psi, ensuring it withstands the stresses of extreme boost pressures without compromise. Additionally, the cores are batch brazed using CSF’s state-of-the-art digital vacuum brazing ovens—12 ovens in total—providing consistent, high-quality joins that resist corrosion and mechanical fatigue over time.
