TWINTERCOOLER FOR VW MK6 GOLF R SKU: FMINTGOLR

Due to some unique space constraints of the MK6 Golf R platform, this kit has a unique core, which is slightly thinner than Forge other cores, but it is also wider and taller, giving it overall more surface area for heat dissipation. 

The end tanks and mounting brackets are also unique to this application. Before and after Dyno testing quickly showed the significant gains of this intercooler were achieved in the upper range, whilst on road testing highlighted the reduction in inlet temperatures . 

Those involved could not believe how well this intercooler worked so well in combination with the performance software upgrade, with the engine continuing to pull hard where it had previously felt as if the power flattened off.

This installation is similar to all our other intercoolers for the transverse FSI and TSI VAG engines with the addition of a second front mounted core in a parallel configuration to the existing OEM front mount. 

This provides for the greatest possible cooling efficiency with the least negative side effects and least modification to the vehicle for installation. 

This particular kit is completely unique to the Golf R application, sharing no other parts with any other TWINtercooler kit that Forge had offered.

Tuner Series Stage 2 Camshafts are designed to optimize horsepower and torque on engines featuring free-flowing intake and exhaust tracts, increased compression, and upgraded valvetrain and are the result of Skunk2's years' worth of drag racing and road racing efforts. 

No other line of high-performance camshafts even comes close to Skunk2's Tuner Series. Skunk2 camshafts deliver unparalleled power as a result of continual, extensive development and testing. 

By utilizing advanced manufacturing techniques and the latest computerized simulation and modeling equipment, Skunk2 camshafts are able to deliver maximum power across the entire powerband. 

Skunk2 designs and tests all of its camshafts in-house to ensure the highest quality and performance. Each camshaft is manufactured from high-strength, hollow, iron-alloy cores featuring cutting-edge profiles that emphasize an exceptional idle and low emissions. 

All Skunk2 camshafts are ground to exact specifications using state-of-the-art CNC cam grinding machines equipped with cubic-boron grinding wheels and feature hardened, wear-resistant lobes and surfaces. 

Skunk2's Tuner Series Camshafts for K20A2-based, K-series engines also feature Fast Ramp and AMAX profile technology, which increases overall performance and results in unmatched response from idle to redline. 

AMAX technology simply maximizes the area under the lift curve but without compromising reliability or valvetrain stability. Skunk2's profiles feature more duration than competitors' at lifts above 1mm, resulting in greater efficiency and more power. 

And thanks to Fast Ramp, the same technology used in Formula One racing, seat timing is reduced, which results in additional cylinder pressure and more torque but without compromising valvetrain longevity.
