Why Wagner Tuning?

Wagner Tuning is a German engineering company specializing in high-performance cooling solutions for European performance vehicles. Their Competition series represents the pinnacle of intercooler technology, combining extensive R&D, flow bench testing, and real-world validation on some of the world's most demanding platforms. Each intercooler is designed vehicle-specific to ensure perfect fitment and maximum performance.

Bar-and-Plate Construction:

Wagner Tuning uses bar-and-plate construction - the same technology found in professional racing applications and high-horsepower builds. This design offers superior heat transfer efficiency compared to tube-and-fin intercoolers, resulting in lower intake temperatures and more consistent performance under sustained high-load conditions like track days, autobahn runs, or drag racing.

Performance Testing:

Wagner Tuning has extensively tested the Competition intercooler on both stock and heavily modified 992 Turbo vehicles. Results show consistent intake temperature reductions of 70-80°F under sustained load, with the ability to support over 800 horsepower on the 3.8L twin-turbo platform when combined with appropriate supporting modifications including upgraded turbos, fueling, and ECU tuning.

Why Upgrade Your Intercooler?

The factory 992 Turbo intercoolers are adequate for stock power levels but become a significant bottleneck when you increase boost or add performance modifications. Heat soak causes the intercoolers to lose efficiency, resulting in higher intake temperatures that reduce power, increase the risk of detonation, and force the ECU to pull timing. The Wagner Competition intercooler eliminates this bottleneck, maintaining low intake temperatures even under the most demanding conditions.

The 992 Turbo Platform:

The Porsche 992 Turbo and Turbo S represent the pinnacle of German engineering, with the 3.8L twin-turbo flat-six producing 572 HP (Turbo) or 640 HP (Turbo S) from the factory. However, these engines have massive tuning potential, with many builds exceeding 800+ horsepower. The Wagner Competition intercooler is the foundation for any serious 992 Turbo performance build, whether you're chasing lap times or quarter-mile records.

Perfect For: Stage 2+ tuned 992 Turbos, big turbo builds, track day enthusiasts, drag racers, autobahn runners, or anyone serious about maximizing their 992 Turbo's performance potential.

Pro Tip: The Wagner intercooler is essential for any 992 Turbo running increased boost or planning turbo upgrades. Pair with upgraded turbos, fueling, and custom ECU tuning for maximum performance gains.

Essential Upgrade: An upgraded intercooler is considered mandatory equipment for any modified 992 Turbo, especially those running Stage 2+ tunes or turbo upgrades targeting 700+ HP.

Experience German engineering excellence with Wagner Tuning's Competition Intercooler - the ultimate cooling upgrade for your Porsche 992 Turbo or Turbo S.
