Charge Cooler Radiator for the Audi RS6 C7 and Audi RS7
🔥 Summary
The Forge Motorsport PolarCooler is the first dedicated auxiliary charge cooler radiator system developed specifically for the C7 Audi RS6 and RS7. It’s designed to solve a common issue in tuned 4.0 TFSI engines—rising intake air temperatures (IATs) under aggressive ECU tuning and repeated hard driving.
🚀 Key Highlights
1️⃣ Over 100% Increased Cooling Capacity
- Uses a 22 FPI louvre super-tech cooling core
- Dramatically improves heat dissipation efficiency
2️⃣ Intelligent Auxiliary Design
- Retains the OEM charge cooler radiator
- Adds a front-mounted auxiliary radiator
- Positioned to avoid condenser obstruction
- Not stacked directly in front of the main coolant radiator
- Installed last in sequence for optimal airflow efficiency
3️⃣ Proven Temperature Reduction
- Achieved 20°C (68°F) lower inlet temperatures
- Tested across 3 consecutive dyno runs
4️⃣ OEM System Integration
- Keeps factory bleed point
- No additional header tank required
- Works with OEM one-way pressure valve system
5️⃣ Premium Fluorosilicone Hoses
- Inner liner compatible with:
- OAT (Organic Acid Technology) coolants
- Long-life coolants
- Oil mist resistance
- Stronger than OEM hoses
- Improved durability and engine bay aesthetics
6️⃣ Complete Installation Kit
- Includes OEM-modified crash bar
- Hand-fabricated end tanks
- Anti-corrosion black powder coating
- All required hardware included
🎯 Why It Matters
For tuned RS6/RS7 builds (Stage 1–3), maintaining low intake temperatures is critical for:
- Consistent power delivery
- Reduced heat soak
- Engine reliability
- Sustained performance in hot climates (especially relevant in Malaysia’s weather 🌡️)
The PolarCooler isn’t just a larger radiator—it’s a properly engineered cooling strategy upgrade for serious power builds.
